Hi Lars,

 

What you are describing is a condition known as phimosis. You do need to pay attention to hygeine to prevent possible problems. If there is any swelling or redness you should see your doctor immediately, but to be on the safe side I think you should be advised to see the doctor anyway in order to establish the severity of the problem. Your doctor will also be able to advise you of the possible implications of phimosis.
