hi XXXX,
your foreskin is a very sensitive area and full of nerves and blood vessels hence it is very easy for it to get injured, thatz why circumcision is recommended.
the reason for circumcision is it reduces the sensitivity of the skin and makes the area less stimulative.
i would suggest get yourself circumcised in order to reduce the symptoms you are experiencing.
hope to have answered your query
thanking you.
