To the questioner: You need to *gently* stretch it sideways (if it hurts, that's too much) for a few minutes each day. After about two weeks it should be loose enough to slide back, as before. By all means see a doctor, but beware of those whose first and last answer for this problem is circumcision. See http://www.circumstitions.com/phimosis.html
To clean it in the meantime, run warm water from a shower or tap into it.
