Question

I'm keeping my foreskin pulled back all the time, so the head of my penis is always exposed. I'm curious if there's any harm in doing this or if it's better to keep it covered. I don't have any problems with my foreskin, but I want my penis to have that circumcised look. Could you let me know if there's any downside to this?

Keeping the foreskin retracted permanently is generally not harmful if you maintain proper hygiene to prevent dryness, irritation, or infections. However, the foreskin naturally protects the glans, so keeping it covered when not needed is advisable. If you prefer a circumcised appearance, you may consult a doctor to discuss safe options.
