Discussion
I'm thinking I need it, and dreading the thought. Over maybe the last year my foreskin has tightened, to the point that certain activities, cleaning under it, and you can guess the other things (!) have become painful.
Is the subject title the likely option, or are there any other options? To any men who are 'done', does the way anything feel change? (again, I'm sure you can get what I mean...)
If it needs doing is the after period painful, and are there any other things to know about?
I get it's a sensitive subject, but figure this community is 99% male, so no shame.
Can anyone shed any advice, suggestions, pointers, trusted places to read up etc, as it's been chewing me up for a while now.
Oh, and if anyone 'done' wants to discuss without announcing as such, then feel free to message me instead.

I started getting worried about that a few years ago and felt I was developing phimosis. In the past when I was doing a lot of cycling I would get cases of balanitis periodically and I think that may have contributed. It has actually resolved itself somehow.
I assume you've spoken to your GP? It's possible that they could prescribe hydrocortisone cream etc.

know a guy who had this done in his thirties -
a few years a go now, anyways he says it was a game changer for him and helped resolve an issue that had been ongoing....
the things he mentioned about it.
its not as bad as what he feared, your not going to be a john wayne bobbitt... and it heals pretty quickly.
Now the nitty gritty - that piece of skin covers the glans - that glans is kept moist and covered and pretty sensitive. the cut removed that skin and he said that its kinda toughened up the glans. its not as sensitive as what it was.
Any self love he said was different - no longer that piece of skin there, not much of a difference but a difference.
Much much cleaner, noticed that he feels fresher and cleaner. and much easier to keep clean..
now the big question... would he go back if he could... Absolutely not....
He said his wife wasnt keen on oral before... but its like she has changed her mind now and hes not going to moan about that.
so it does make a difference.

How old are you and why would the problem develop now assuming you're fully developed? Seem's odd to have this issue as a developed adult. Wimmen, can't trust them lol.
43, and god only knows. Wifey is the only woman I have slept with in 8 years, so no chance any grubby lass has given me her 'bugs'PeteinSQ said:

Only issue that i had was getting abrasion sores on my bell end, where it could now rub against my underwear.
Toughens up eventually though
My reasons for getting it done sound similar to yours - and no, i wouldn't go back either !
Were the sores painful, itchy, or irritating, out of curiosity?Toughens up eventually though

Dry / irritatingSorts itself out after a couple of months.
I had to have a couple of poorly placed stitches removed a few days after i had the op. Fortunately the old lady nurse at the doctors surgery was a professional !
