foreskin pain !!

hi , i dont quite know which category is relevant .
I do suffer from a tight foreskin but can live with it . however what i find is  the day after sex my foreskin becomes swollen and little tiny splits 2 mm long appear which bleed and are painfull like having pins stuck in , especially when passing water !

do i have a problem which means i can only be cured by circumcision ?

as above the same symtoms also occur even in periods without sex , ie swelling and cuts !!

whats happening !!

please ?

You sound like you should talk to a doctor about that, could be something other than just tight skin.
Try using a vitamin E cream, and taking a fish oil tablet everyday to help with elasticity in your skin.
If this condition is too painful to life with, maybe a circumcision is the best answer, be wary though, make sure you research the operation well, and know everything that could go wrong.

also get checked out for STD's. could be something like herpes if its happening without a physical cause.
