Question 1

I noticed that the redness has come back on my penis foreskin after using Candid B, which helped at first. The redness is mainly at the bottom of the foreskin near the penis head, but there are no ulcers and it doesn't itch. Should I be concerned about this recurring redness, or is it normal? What should I do next?

Question 2

I'm really struggling with some issues regarding my penis. It seems to have gotten quite small, and I feel awkward when I'm peeing because I make an effort to hide it from others. When it does get hard, it's not as firm as I'd like, and I often exper...

The typical erect penis is usually 5 to 6 inches long with a circumference of 4 to 5 inches. There's more variation in the size of flaccid penises.

Some guys are genuinely smaller than that. In rare cases, genetics and hormone problems cause a condition called micropenis ...Sometimes Peyronie's disease can reduce a guy's size.

Losing weight will reveal more of that hidden shaft that's buried beneath belly fat. It doesn't actually increase your size, but it will look that way..

Question 3

I'm having trouble maintaining an erection during sex and I can't seem to last more than 10 seconds. Can you recommend any tablets or treatments that could help me stay harder for at least 5 minutes?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you're experiencing erectile issues. Medications like Viagra (sildenafil) or Cialis (tadalafil) can help improve firmness and prolong erections. However, its best to consult with a healthcare provider to identify the underlying cause and determine the right treatment for you.

Question 4

How can you tell the difference between congenital phimosis and adult-onset phimosis? Also, does having phimosis mean someone is impotent? And is there a way to treat congenital phimosis without needing surgery, maybe using something like betamethaso...

Accepted Answer

Congenital phimosis is present from birth, where the foreskin cannot be retracted due to a tight opening, while phimosis in adults often develops due to scarring or infection. Phimosis is not considered impotence, as it primarily affects the foreskin's ability to retract, not erectile function. Betamethasone cream can be effective in mild cases of congenital phimosis by reducing inflammation and allowing easier retraction, but surgery may still be required for more severe cases.

Question 5

I'm doing daily masturbation and I'm wondering if it could affect anything health-wise. Are there any side effects I should be worried about? Would appreciate some guidance.

Accepted Answer

Masturbation is a normal and healthy sexual activity. It does not cause any physical harm or have any long-term side effects. However, excessive masturbation can lead to temporary genital irritation. It is important to maintain a balance and listen to your body's needs. If you experience any discomfort, you can use over-the-counter creams like Calamine lotion to soothe the irritation.

Question 6

I'm a bit worried because I've noticed small red spots on the inner head of my penis. They showed up about 23 days after I had oral sex, and they're giving me a slight sensation. Could you please let me know what this might be and what steps I should...

Accepted Answer

The small red spots on the inner head of your penis, accompanied by a slight sensation, may be caused by several factors related to oral sex. Here are some possible explanations:

*Possible Causes*

1. *Irritation or Allergic Reaction*: Your partner's mouth or saliva might have caused irritation or an allergic reaction, leading to red spots and discomfort.
2. *Cuts or Micro-Trauma*: Minor cuts or micro-trauma during oral sex can cause red spots and sensitivity.
3. *STDs or STIs*: Certain sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) or infections (STIs), such as herpes, syphilis, or gonorrhea, can cause red spots or sores on the genitals.
4. *Balanitis*: This is an inflammation of the glans penis, often caused by poor hygiene, irritation, or infection.

*Next Steps*

1. *Consult a Doctor*: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician, urologist, or a dermatologist to evaluate the red spots and determine the underlying cause.
2. *Get Tested for STDsSTIs*: Even if you're in a monogamous relationship, it's essential to get tested for STDsSTIs to rule out any potential infections.
3. *Practice Good Hygiene*: Maintain good genital hygiene, and avoid any further irritation or trauma to the affected area.
4. *Abstain from Sexual Activity*: Avoid any sexual activity until you've consulted a doctor and received proper guidance.
