It hurts when I try to clean the tip of my penis. I am not circumcised and don’t like to pull the foreskin back. What should I do?

You should pull the foreskin back in spite of the pain. Your glans is possibly very sensitive because it has always been covered. When you roll it back regularly and you touch the glans to clean it, the skin will become thicker, making the glans less sensitive. You can also expose the glans before you go to sleep or when you watch television or do your homework. Another way to tackle this problem is to wet the glans with cold tea after showering. The tannic acid will thicken the fragile skin. It’s very important to remove the smegma every day. If you fail to do this the foreskin may stick to your glans, making it impossible to pull it back.
