Do you have to pull your foreskin back?

Answer 1

It is good to pull your foreskin back so that you can wash your penis head in the bath or shower just like any other body part. If you're unable to pull you're foreskin back, here is a method for treating the problem. For men and boys with a tight foreskin that can not retract off the head, a condition known as phimosis, the skin can usually be stretched to comfortably slide on and off the head. Stretching the foreskin works in about 9 out of 10 cases, making circumcision rarely necessary. When trying to stretch your foreskin, the most important thing to realize is to do it very slowly. It will take months to acheive results. You will want to gently place a finger or two into the opening of your foreskin and gently apply continuous pressure. Make sure you do not feel pain. Pain indicates you are causing damage to the foreskin. For 15 or 30 minutes every day, gently stretch the opening of the foreskin and apply a topical steroid cream twice a day. It is important to do it every day or even a couple times of the day. Just make sure you are not causing any pain, tearing or bleeding. You may enjoy pulling and stretching the foreskin while you masturbate. The most important thing is to do it consistently every day. Using a topical steroid cream is essential when stretching. You should apply it to the tight part of the foreskin inside and out twice a day. It's also good to apply the cream while you stretch. Betamethasone cream 0.05% works the best, but it is only available by prescription from a doctor. If you are unable to go to a doctor, hydrocortisone cream 1.0% is available without a prescription at any drug store. Also, it is important to never force the foreskin back over the head. If the foreskin becomes stuck behind the head while you are hard, then is called paraphimosis. If the skin gets stuck back while you are hard and you can not get the foreskin back over the head, this is a medical emergency, and you must go to an emergency room immediately. Failure to have paraphimosis treated can cause serious permanent damage to the penis. Here is a summary for how to stretch your foreskin: 1) Do it every day for 15-20 minutes twice per day. The more time you spend stretching it the faster it will work. 2) Go very slowly. Stretch it firmly, but don't make it hurt. If you feel pain, soreness, or have bleeding or irritation, stop for a while. If you feel pain, you're stretching it too hard. 3) Use betamethasone cream 0.05% or hydrocortisone cream 1.0%. Apply twice a day to the tight part of the foreskin. Applying the cream while stretching works well. 4) Never force your foreskin back. You don't want it to get stuck behind the head. That is paraphimosis, and it requires immediate emergency medical attention. 5) Be patient! It may take months for you to get your foreskin stretched enough to move on and off the head easily. Even though it takes a long time to stretch, most men find this alternative much better than getting circumcised, which requires getting your foreskin cut off, is painful, and makes your penis less sensitive to sexual pleasure. You'll be happy with your foreskin if you take the time to patient stretch it. Good luck!

Answer 2

In some men, they require that necessity, so if you do, it's nothing extremely unusual.

It is better if you can pull it back enough for the uretha to not be covered before peeing so you can aim straight into the bowl otherwise the pee may go on the floor.

You don't have to, but you can. Some males find they can aim their stream better when the foreskin is retracted. Men with looser foreskins often find the foreskin doesn't get in the way, so they don't bother retracting it. It's up to personal preference really.

It would seem to be the best way unless you sit down to pee. the foreskin may cause the urine stream to spread and make a mess. besides it would be better if you were dry after urinating rather then have the end of the foreskin wet with urine. It is just common sense and consideration for the cleaner.

Answer 3

The natural position for the foreskin on the flaccid penis is covering it entirely although some foreskins can be longer or shorter. when the penis is erect the foreskin often tends to cover less then three quarters of the glans. However it should be able to be easily retracted to well back past the glans. this makes it easy and comfortable to clean properly and exposes the sensitive glans and internal mucousal lining of the foreskin during sexual intercourse and masturbation as well as improving the sexual experience of the woman. If you cant pull it back yet and you are not sexually active it is nothing to worry about, however if you want to loosen it just go to the top of this page and ask " how do you stretch your foreskin" and you will find a lot of useful information.

During intercourse, you foreskin will retract by itself.
