I keep getting small cuts on my foreskin during sex and sometimes it hurts a lot. It feels like phimosis but I really don't want to get circumcision or surgery. Are there any other treatments that could help with this?

Foreskin cuts and pain during intercourse may indicate phimosis; steroid creams and stretching exercises can help, but persistent symptoms may eventually need minor surgery.

Topical steroid creams may help retract the foreskin; if ineffective, circumcision remains a definitive treatment.
