    Hi sou,

    I think you have lichen sclerosis, a scarring condition that can cause these symptoms. The photo not only shows that the foreskin is tight but it's discoloured and whiter than the surrounding skin. You should see a doctor for some steroid cream and have it treated under medical supervision. Circumcision can be avoided if the steroid cream is effective.

    I fully agree with the advice Adhari has given you - I am an Lichen Sclerosis sufferer myself, I can guide you further AFTER you have seen a medical professional about this, as you need to get an appropriate topical steroidal application in place as soon as possible.

    You may be better to see a Dermatologist, but try to get at least a phone consultation with your Regular / Family Doctor / GP - or, some of the larger Sexual Health Centres / Service providers could also give you excellent advice and potentially refer you to an appropriate Dermatologist
