odd question about retraction

[Houdini]

My son is circ'd, but has a loose circ. The head of his penis is just, in the last few months, begun to emerge from his foreskin. Just wondering if anyone else's child had sensitivity issues with anything touching the head of the penis. I am pretty certain it is because he is not used to anything having contact with it. He is constantly pushes his penis back into the foreskin. He said it gets cold and feels too weird against his underwear. Any suggestions on what could make him feel better. He just turned seven.

No great advice, sorry. Poor boy already knows that something's wrong- the head is designed to be protected

Maybe try softer underwear?

Good luck!

The only thing you can do as far as I know is leaving his foreskin retract all the time until his head of the penis loses enough sensation.

This discomfort happens to everyone, but how can they complain, being babies? (Those who were as unlucky to get circumcised in teenage years do complain. I read many posts by them saying it will take weeks to adjust).

Did you tell your son why this is happening?
He might think that it's a problem with him which can result in psychological damage in his teenage years if you didn’t tell him.

Obviously he is not keen to the idea of circumcision when in some way, he undergoes it again, only without the pain.

I think you should reconsider leaving your next son intact

I wish you and your and your boy(!!!) good luck

P.S. The poor guy is 7??
retracting + tight undies may work

My advice would be the opposite - to preserve as much sensitivity as possible, I would say encourage covering the glans with the remnant foreskin as much as possible. Depending on how much skin there is, perhaps a little surgical (non-irritating) tape could be used to tape the foreskin forward to provide as much protection as possible. (I'm not talking full-blown restoration, just enough to provide coverage and more comfort).

The problem is that in a couple of years he wont be able to cover it at all.
Yeah, maybe it's a good idea to preserve as much sensitivity as possible,
but in a few years it will just not work

P.S. What i meant was, maybe he should "get used" to his circumcised state now, so when he reaches puberty he won't have to worry about it.

[Frankly Speaking]

This is a stage that restoring men go through and yes, it is distracting and uncomfortable. I would like to give you some good advice but I just don't know what to tell you other than it's something he will have to live with. I suspect that some day, he will want to restore to a point that his penis becomes comfortable again. However, that is years away.
