My inner foreskin keeps tearing frequently every time I have an erection or sexual intercourse (with or without condom). The tear happens on the top-right side of the penis where the inner foreskin is just about to meet the penis head. I have been facing this issue since feb when I first saw a whitish spot at the same location and got a penicillin shot from the local health provider. The area was fully normal in april. After engaging in sex with my partner in mid april without condom, the same spot tore which healed by mid may on its own. When I had sex again in may 20 (with condom), the same spot tore once again. Its june 5 and the area looks healed but I can see that there is a scar mark and slight prickly pain at that area. Please help to understand how long should I wait for the complete healing and how to avoid having an erection. Any other useful remedy or advice would be highly appreciated.

Hello-"phimosis" is the technical term for an un-retractable foreskin. An acute case of phimosis may create problems for the person when he would want to pass urine or to perform sex, as this action may either be restricted or become troublesome. This is when phimosis becomes a medical emergency. It has been linked with an increased risk of infection, loss of sexual stimulation of the penis and even penis cancer. Traditionally medicine offers conservative treatment of phimosis. It is worth noting that in recent years, medicine has made great progress in this field. So, if you looking for a permanent solution for your tight foreskin, yes it is possible with ayurveda. Surgery (circumcision) can be avoided.

It's possible that the initial whitish spot you noticed could have been related to an infection or other underlying condition, which may have required the penicillin shot you received. However, without a proper examination and evaluation, it's difficult to determine the exact cause of the tear you're experiencing. It's important to communicate openly with your healthcare provider about your symptoms and any relevant sexual history. They will be able to provide you with a more accurate assessment and recommend appropriate treatment options, if necessary.
