Why has my foreskin become tight?

It sound like phimosis. You need to use a cream or possibly might need surgery if that doesn't work.

I have interstitial cystitis. Are there certain foods I should avoid? If so, which ones?

Yes. Spicy foods, acidic foods, caffeine and alcohol can all make the symptoms worse. Foods and beverages containing artificial sweeteners can also trigger symptoms.
