Tight foreskin (phimosis)
It's normal for babies and young boys to contain a tight foreskin (phimosis), but adults can also be affected. See a GP if your or your child's foreskin is sore or swollen.
Symptoms of a tight foreskin
The foreskin is the thin layer of skin that covers the end of the penis. If you or your child has a tight foreskin, it will be difficult to pull it back from the end of the penis.
A firm foreskin is normal in babies and young boys. Most boys' foreskins do not pull support (retract) before the age of 5, but sometimes it's not possible until they're 10 or older.
The end of a boy's penis may bulge or balloon when they pee, particularly if their foreskin is tight.
A close foreskin is not usually a problem, unless there are symptoms such as:
- swelling and tenderness
- pain when peeing or a weak flow of pee
- blood in urine
- frequent urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- bleeding or a thick discharge from under the foreskin or an unpleasant emit – these are signs of an infection (balanitis)
- painful erections, which can make having sex difficult
Things you can do
What to do if you have a tight foreskin – AKA phimosis
I was probably about 11 when I first realised my dick was different. It was during my first few weeks at secondary school, staring at the endless gallery of illustrated cocks that were scribbled on the walls of the boys’ bogs – none of which looked like mine.
Unlike those painted onto school books and bus stops, my foreskin wouldn’t fully retract over my glans. I learnt via the internet that I had a condition called phimosis – or a tight foreskin. The condition affects around 10 per cent of boys aged three and then decreases through puberty, with an estimated per cent of year-olds having a non-retractable foreskin.
Dr Challacombe has been working as a urologist in London for 10 years. He says that he can expect to see between 5 and 10 patients every week who have phimosis. “It’s pretty common. It can be congenital or it can develop due to something happening to the foreskin – most often chronic irritation or infection,” he explains.

Foreskin
The end of the cock is covered by a sleeve of stretchy skin called the foreskin. It protects the cock while pliable, keeping it moist and sensitive. When we are born, the foreskin is usually stuck to it until we are about years old when it starts to peel back by itself. By the moment we are in our teens it can be pulled back and forwards without any problems.

Dear Dr Ren,
I’m a year-old gay man who has always had problems with my foreskin being snug . It’s been getting worse, and I’ve been considering getting circumcised to deal with the problem once and for all. What’s involved?
I’m far from lean and work in an office at a laptop. Will these things change my healing? Mostly I’m concerned about how a circumcision will affect sex.
What do I need to know?

Dear Painfully Tight,

Most doctors advise against adult circumcision unless necessary to correct a obstacle such as balanoposthitis (inflammation of the penis brain and foreskin) or phimosis (difficulty retracting the foreskin), which you describe.
