                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have suffered with a tight foreskin all my life, I have tried stretching in the past, and it seems to help for a while, but unless I do the stretching every day it gradually goes back to how it was. Now being older I am concerned that my skin is no longer flexible enough for this to make a difference. I can pull my foreskin back with an erection, but due to the tightness under my gland it now has the effect of reducing the size and length of my erection, not to mention causing soreness. This all results in a disappointing sex life, which I'll be honest is the story of my life. I would appreciate any advice... </p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi all,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>has anyone here had success lengthening their foreskin by just pulling it with their hands?  If so, how long would you pull for and how long until you saw noticeable results?  My foreskin covers my glans when flaccid, but it stops right at my urethra.  I would prefer some overhang so that when I am erect it will will still cover.  The reason I want a longer foreskin is so when I am having sex, my foreskin actually rolls back down over the glans on the out stroke of sex.</p>
<p>Thanks for your help guys!  <br /><br /></p>
<p>p.s.  </p>
<p>growing up all my friends were circumcised and made fun of foreskins, so it’s really nice to be in a pro foreskin setting.</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am 24 years old and for as long as I can remember I have been suffering with phimosis.</p>
<p>It used to be really bad when I was younger, up until when I was 22 and started trying to stretch it. I may also need to mention that after that point (because I was also really harsh with it and also because I masturbate too often) I used to get balanoposthitis really often (now just once a month and not as terrible as those back then).</p>
<p>After the urethra hole became visible via stretching, I realised that the area just around the hole is super red and sensitivite! The rest of the head is also very sensitive but nothing compared to the urethra opening.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Since this summer I have been periodically managing to stretch the foreskin, up until having it slide over my glans when flaccid (and being at last able to clean all the smegma etc completely). However, the redness of my urethra opening hasn't receded at all.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I also recently bought the phimocure stretch rings and really want to start using them! However, my glans are still super sensitive to the touch (and I dare not touch them because it hurts a lot!) and to make things even worse, to put the rings on the head you have to fold them and they will inadvertenly touch the urethra opening which will most probably cause an excruciating pain.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I was thinking of what solutions I have: is there any kind of anesthetic I can use just before touching the rings on my glans to reduce the discomfort? What do you recommend? Also, what can I do about the urethra? I have been having it at least since when I was 18 (can't remember before that) and still not sure what it is caused by...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thank you so much,</p>
<p>D.</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello, I have quite some questions after all.. When flaccid I'm able to retract my foreskin fully without any problems at all, and I don't feel any pain either. Once retracted, it requires a little effort initially to get it back, where I have to "push" a little bit to get it back on the glans itself, where it then rolls out by itself, but other than that it is no big deal at all. So there's not really any problem when flaccid. When erect, I'm able to retract the foreskin somewhat, depending on whether the penis points upwards or forwards. If pointing upwards it can retract quite a bit, maybe like 50%, and when I then point it forwards, it can't retract as much, because it would hurt.</p>
<p>I really don't know what size of ring I should begin with initially, so I've decided to say fuck it and begin with size 4 of 20, because size 1-3 were just loose when placed, and didn't fill out. Size 4 isn't really loose. I have then decided to step up one size after 4 days of three sessions each day, each consisting of one hour. Also, when do I need to apply the cream? Only at the end of the day, or after each session? Also, do I need to stop cleaning my glans with soap when showering? Because that's what I've done for years, but I've read somewhere that that is not a good idea. Basically I read so many different things regarding all this on the internet, that it leaves me with more questions than answers. I hope you guys can give some advice. Btw. I'm 20 years old, and had to deal with this back when I was like 10-12 years old, where I was provided with some prescription steroids cream I think, but that wasn't succesful. It was called "Diproderm"</p>

<p>Cheers.</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>I'm not embarrassed nor worried, but I have a question.</p>
<p>Background: I'm 60. I first ever got my foreskin back when I was 15 &amp; it got stuck. Paraphymosis. Very embarassing &amp; the treatment in A&amp;E was painful. After that I had great fun stretching it (ahem) though it has always been tight &amp; sometimes painful or difficult to retract when I'm erect.</p>
<p>The past couple of years it has started getting tighter again &amp; sex is sometimes awkward &amp; painful. Using lots of lube helps .</p>
<p>I've been insterting my two little fingers into the tightest area to try to stretch it but this has only had a small effect because I can only keep this up for a limited time.</p>
<p>I got some rings but my foreskin is quite long so the one I've tried tends to slip inwards to where it isn't tight or turn round into the wrong position.</p>
<p>Any advice?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
