A member asked:

What to do if i got circumcised today due to tight foreskin and extreme hypersensitivity of the head, now what?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Penis sensitivity: Usually the excess sensitivity decreases in a few weeks as the glans becomes accustomed to being uncovered and the skin matures.

Never had intercourse because of my tight foreskin and now I recognise how stupid I have been for years. I can pull the skin back when erect but its uncomfortable. Do you think I would have difficulty with sex? Or do you think its possible for me?
