About stretching.Can after some time become tighter

Hi guys.I am 15 year old male.I havent phimosis but i hadnt retracted the foreskin before.So i had started since i got a small infection.At first i managed to go almost half way through.I was there for some days.Well infection got worst and i had a llot of anxiety(It got worse,its summer and can be really sweaty down there).After bathing and using better underwear,the infection became less painful(the glans wasnt that red and foreskin not that red too).The problem is(i dont know if it is stress or trying at morning with no bath) but the foreskin became more tight,i can now do half of what i could before.During the period of infection getting  worse,i washed less but i still washed.

   Should i try again in the bath?Does stress affect the foreskin?I am scared i might get phimosis

I'm a year older than you, I suppose stress can make your foreskin tighter temporarily but  it'd be a physiological problem, if it's not the stress making it tight, be careful not to use too much force on the foreskin because you can hurt yourself, it takes time for the skin to get stretched out if you have phimosis. Hang in there buddy. I think you'll be alright as long as you give it a slight rest

But if you're really worried, ask your parents to take you to a urologist and you can talk to them about your problems, urologist are the best help you can probably get when it comes to these kind of problems
