# A bit worried. Written by Shawn at 24 Jan 2006 00:09:43: Hi, A need a bit of advice. I have only recently discovered that I have phimosis. I never knew it was a condition very few men have, and as a result, I have become very worried about it. The foreskin does not retract fully but only a very small bit and the glans are fairly sensitive to touching. I don't want to forcfully retract it as I fear it will cause paraphimosis. Here is a pic of what it generally looks like when erect: https://www.foreskin.org/tilted5.jpg I have researched a little on circumsition but it sounds very painful. If I decide to undergo the circumsition, will I be awake during the surgery? Are other effective non-surgical methods available? I would like a reply as soon as possible, thank you.
