A member asked:
My son is almost 3 years old and uncicumsized. his foreskin seems to be closed around the top part of his penis and his complaining that it hurts?

It happens: If it is tight around the top it may also be firmly attached to the glans. I would seek a visit with his pediatrician or a urologist to evaluate the site & consider options for treatment. A simple office procedure under local may release the tight ring or other procedures may be considered.
