As a younger man this was a major cause of destress for me. I was adamant I didn't want it off so being a young man I suffered in silence. It actually help me back in terms of performance as I was so terrified of doing damaged, ironically it probably make me an uncharetrically 'tender'
lover for a young man.
By pure fluke I pretty much got to ideal outcome, although it was a horrific scene at the time, going at it on a friends beige sofa with a mutual friend I'd met that night once our host had gone to bed and 'snap' yep my bango went and there was blood everywhere, it looked like a murder scene.
I sat on the loo gushing blood which was literally pumping out with my boner talking to the NHS saying "I've snapped my, errr don't know the technical name for banjo". I really though that was it and it would have to go but nothing was actually flapping about or anything.
I was so careful cleaning the blood away and did anything to avoid getting aroused for about 3-4 weeks but actually it healed quite nicely. The banjo is actually attached by tissue on each side of the J-eye and one side had cleanly detached meaning it didn't look strange but gave me that extra give I needed.
As some have mentioned I got cuts on my foreskin around the head which were a pain because they'd scab up and re-tear which took a good two months further to heal completely and actually returned the next winter but you've jut got to be careful with how much you exert yourself when they get bad.
I used to apply Bio-oil (there is a much cheaper and almost identical product in Asda which is good at a third the price right next to it called -re-gen or something) at least once a day to the affected area and it worked a treat. I'm sure you could get similar results with anything pregnant woman use to lessen the appearance of stretch marks such as cocoa or ea butter, stuff with vitamin e.
I guess I got lucky but I would talk to your GP to at least discuss the options, you may feel getting circumcised liberates you or you may decide you'd try other things first and keep that as a last option. I just do't know what is on offer from the Docs.
I'd suggest you avoid getting aroused or touching it at all when you have scabs and it is still healing but when they are about ready to fall off just Bo-oil it as much as possible, three times a day if you can and gently pull it back in a controlled fashion where by you can feel it stretching but not to the point of splitting.
Looking back to the distress this issue used to cause me and how I take it for granted now is actually amazing, when I tell anyone they usually ask me what it looks like. I tell them pretty much as a typical one, just my Jap's Eye looking like he's about to weep salty tears and to be fair he probably is!
