I have developed white ring like something on foreskin which gets more white when erect, due to which foreskin get tight. but still it's retractable, but it gets more difficult to retract when erect. is this something to worry? give nonsurgical sol?

Consult a urologist for evaluation and advice. You may have a condition called lichen sclerosus which, if not treated early, can lead to severe tightening of the foreskin leading to need for circumcision in the future.
