I'm a 26-year-old guy and I've been really stressed about an issue I'm having. There's this membrane-like thing that seems to prevent my foreskin from pulling back properly, and it really stings if I try to force it. I came across some info online and I think it might be the frenulum. It's affecting my relationship and Im really worried about it. Is there anything I can do at home to fix it, or does it mean I need to get circumcised? Any advice would be great.

View allI've had an encysted hydrocele for about 3 years now and I'm based in Chennai. Is surgery the only option for this or are there other treatments I can consider? It's been bothering me for a while and I'm not sure what to do next.
Surgery is typically the most effective way to treat an encysted hydrocele, though there may be non-invasive options like aspiration or drainage. Consult with a specialist in Chennai for the best course of action.

I'm worried about whether I might have Frenulum breve. I can't fully retract my foreskin when my penis is erect, but I can do it when it's semi-erect or flaccid. Is that enough reason to think I have this condition?
-Frenulum breve is when the frenulum (the band under the penis head) is too short, limiting foreskin retraction, especially during an erection. If you can retract it only on a flaccid or semi-erect penis, it could be a sign, but it's best to consult a doc

I have bilateral varicocele with sizes 2.3 mm and 2.6 mm, diagnosed as grade 1. I'm really hesitant about surgery has anyone successfully treated varicocele using just ayurvedic or natural remedies? Looking for options that don't involve going under the knife.
Grade 1 varicocele may not need surgery—Ayurvedic therapies like leech therapy, herbs, and lifestyle changes help in some.
