A member asked:

I have realised that i have been experiencing a pain in the head or foreskin area of my penis whenever i flex it, is there a reason this may me happening and is it worth convern?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Foreskin: If there are no lesions on your foreskin or head of the penis and if there are no deformities, urinary, erectile or ejaculation problems, I don't think that discomfort on bending the penis is worrisome. If you still have concerns, have an examination by a physician or urologist.
