Hello
Thanks for query.You have Phimosis .The only treatment for Phimosis is to get circumcised failing which will cause pain and difficulty while penetrating vagina during intercourse..

Circumcision is a simple surgery done under local anaesthesia carried out as a out patient procedure.It takes 2 weeks for complete recovery and offers permanent cure and helps to have enjoyable sex.
