Urologist 's  Response
Hi,

As an Urologist, I can understand your anxiety. The foreskin should be retracted daily to maintain penile hygiene. It should be pulled back up without getting stuck at any level. If you're experiencing this problem daily, see an Urologist or a surgeon. You'll be shown the right way to retract the foreskin completely. You may even use some vaseline to lubricate the inner foreskin. If you've any doubts, send me a direct question.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Matthew J. Mangat
