Answer
Dear Sangeeth,
Foreskin is a natural thing and having it doesnt itself cause problems. However there are two condtions that you should be aware of.
1. Phimosis: This happens when the foreskin cannot be retracted (pulled back) behind the head (glans) of the penis. This is called phimosis. It is usually a condition found in children.
2. Paraphimosis: The other condition, paraphimosis, is somewhat the opposite—the foreskin, after being pulled back, becomes trapped and then swollen behind the head (glans) of the penis.
I hope I have answered your question.
