A member asked:

I am 22 and my penis' s foreskin is still not broken...? is it compulsory to break..? if yes then how to break now...?

Most likely phimosis: If your skin is not retracting you have phimosis , not a serious problem , it is possible to stretch the fore skin under local anesthesia , some times due to sevre scaring , may need circumcision , see your doctor
