For years i have feared sex because of my tight foreskin and recently i messed up an amazing opportunity with a girl because of it. when im fully erect i can pull the skin back over the head but its pretty uncomfortable could steroid cream help?

I would visit a urologist and ask for simple options that would help. An office procedure could loosen the tourniquet effect you describe and that would end the issue.

Just applying steroid cream will not help. Apply a small amt of steroid cream as lubricant and gently pull the skin back as far back as you can without discomfort leave it like that for a minute or two then pull it front again. Practice daily till your skin becomes supple and can be retracted all the way back. It will take time. Other option is circumcision. Good luck

Agree with Dr. Ferguson. Do not pull back the foreskin, forcibly.

Why does mild steroid based cream make my skin feel tight?
Tight foreskin. Can be pulled 3/4 down the head just too tight to fully expose the head. When flaccid the foreskin can easily be pulled back and forth completely. Can urinate and complete sexual activities fine, just want to be able to fully retract?
Foreskin tore during sex and when it healed it was to tight to pull back. It tore again when I did get it to retracted past my penile head. Do I need to see a doctor for it to heal proper without the tightness or will it repair itself back with time?
