soaps on telly and people talking about the characters as if they were real.
As the wife of a former sufferer[ who had surgery to correct] I would say "See your doctor ASAP swallowing your embarrassment

I've had the same problem intermittently for several months, starting before I discovered I was diagnosed as type 2, so when I told my doctor he thought it might be a side effect of medication I was using, so changed the medication. I've tried several remedies myself, and found the most effective to be dipping the end of my penis into a small jar of DILUTED T.C.P. My doctor thought this as good a treatment as any. Since being diagnosed and taking medication the occurrence has dropped considerably.

Hi. I wouldn't have thought that a tight foreskin was connected with diabetes? If you have a candida infection which is quite common when diagnosed with db, then that will clear up when your blood sugar comes down. If it is nothing to do with a candida (thrush) infection then I understand a small snip can be made by the hospital which cures the problem.

It is Though...i forget the name but recurrent balantitis can cause a complication(Forgot the name) that causes inflammation and severe tightness of the foreskin.

More thank likely you have thrush, quite often brought on by high blood sugars, get the oral pill and cream from the pharmacy or doctor. If you have high blood sugars try to get them more stable. Also dont forget if you have a partner they will more than liely need treated too.

I have been diagnosed with diabetes and high collestrol I’m on metformin tablets and Lipitor tablets I noticed my forskin wouldn’t pull back a while ago before I had blood test and diagnosed
I keep my forskin clean so I hoping there’s no deseases no smells or discharge obviously like all boys and men I do get a bit of white cheese type stuff if left for a while but don’t smell and just rub my finger around inside my forskin and clean it but is this down to diabetes and how can I pull it back thanks for any advise
