After having a very small foreskin opening, I read about phimosis and began to think I had the symptoms, I was booked at the doctors and explained what I though and got referred to a urologist. They agreed I had a severe case of phimosis and surgery was the option strongly recommended to me, which would involve loosening the frenulum slightly whilst also cutting a part of my foreskin. I wasn't given much time with the urologist and felt rushed into a decision, which I said yes to.
Surgery comes along etc, ready to go, however this is postponed as I had a small rash slightly below the foreskin (this was roughly 3/4montha ago) I had been told that I would hear back regarding a new date for surgery...still haven't. Because of this, I found that it was in fact a large build up of smegma on the penis head sticking, which prevented my foerskin fully retracting, I had a warm bath and started the task of slowly doing this. (I hadn't done this before because I had no knowledge or did not know any better). This is made even worse that a "qualified" urologist/surgeon Misdiagnosed me, and if it were not for the small chances of missing my first surgery date I would have had unneeded surgery.
However after removing roughly half of the smegma, I began retracting the foreskin back completely and it began to get in a uncomfortably stuck position, to which I started to panic and remove the rest of the smegma (bottom half) quicker than the first half as this was what it was sticking too. Now on the bottom half of my penis head, there are red markings, which looks like where the smegma was, I've included a pic.
I scheduling to see the doctor/urologist again, and I am wondering what exactly I should say, I will be definelty be informing him about the misdiagnose and the redness of my penis head, however if there is anything else I should raise, please let me know. Also, when erect, I am not fully confident of fully retracting, if you could provide feedback on what would be the best way of moving forward, please let me know.
For anyone who thinks surgery is a quick remedy, please try anything and everything first and leave surgery as a last resort! Being so close to having surgery and to then realize I didn't need it, made me think how truely lucky I was!
