Hello-"phimosis" is the technical term for an un-retractable foreskin. The foreskin of the penis is not retractable in an infant or a young child. This is considered to be a normal part of development. As the child grows into puberty the foreskin naturally separates itself from the head of the penis, allowing for complete retraction.

It's important to talk to your doctor about any white scarring on your foreskin as it can be difficult to determine yourself if you have bxo and it generally gets worse over time.
These cracks could be painful and can be associated with fungal or bacterial infection, lichen sclerosus (bxo), and tight foreskin (phimosis and paraphimosis). Fungal infections are usually responsible, most commonly involving the yeast is called candida albicans which is associated with a bacterial infection.
