View allI can't pull back my foreskin when I'm erect it hurts if I try to force it, but when it starts going back to flaccid, I can retract it easily since it doesn't feel tight then. Is there any way to fix this without needing surgery?
It sounds like you might have phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight and can't be easily retracted. While surgery (circumcision) is an option, there are non-surgical treatments that can help

I've had a hernia on the left side of my groin for a while, and recently noticed my spermatocele in the upper scrotum has gotten bigger. The hernia has been a bit painful the last few days, and the spermatocele seems to have grown around the same time. Could the hernia be causing the spermatocele to increase in size? If I get hernia surgery, will that help with the spermatocele too? Are there any non-surgical treatments for spermatocele that might help?
Apollo is best for it.

I'm considering adult circumcision because I have a tight foreskin issue and might need surgery. What are the actual benefits of getting circumcised? I've heard it can reduce sexual pleasure is that true? Could you explain the pros and cons? Also, what's the typical cost for this procedure?
Circumcision changes how someone's penis looks and may lower their risk of diseases such as cancer of the penis, HIV, and HPV.it has no effect on your sexual function or fertility.
