Question 1

I'm dealing with something called polycystic and I'm not exactly sure what that means. Could you give me some advice on what exercises or foods might help with this condition? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

Accepted Answer

Consult a doctor or urologist for proper guidance. They may recommend:

1. Topical creams or ointments to loosen the foreskin.
2. Gradual stretching exercises.
3. Preputioplasty (a minor surgical procedure).
4. Circumcision (as a last resort).

Avoid forcing the foreskin back, as it can cause further injury and scarring.

Question 3

I've noticed that both sides of my parotid glands have been swollen for the last five years. There's no pain, but I've been to an ENT specialist who did an MRI, an ultrasound, and some blood tests. Everything came back normal, except that he said my parotid glands are enlarged and mentioned it might be something I was born with. What's got me worried is that I've observed these glands getting bigger every year. I've been trying to maintain a good diet, avoiding oily foods, and doing regular exercise, yet my face remains swollen. Should I be concerned about this and consider seeing another specialist?
