I'm a bit worried about my situation. When my penis is flaccid, I can easily pull the foreskin back. Is this normal? Should I be keeping it rolled back all the time, or is there a reason to be concerned?

Its normal for the foreskin to be easily pulled back when the penis is flaccid, as long as it doesnt cause discomfort or pain. It's not necessary to keep the foreskin rolled back all the time unless advised by a healthcare provider, as it may lead to irritation or other issues. Regular hygiene is important to prevent infections.

I've just found out I have a 1.5 cm right renal simple upper polar cortical cyst. There's no hydronephrosis or calculus, but there's minimal free fluid in the pelvis. I'm really worried about what kind of treatment I might need and how quickly this can be resolved. Can you help me understand what steps I should take next?
Treatment for a simple kidney cyst depends on whether it's causing symptoms or blocking urine or blood flow: No symptoms: A doctor may monitor the cyst periodically. Symptoms: A health care provider may recommend treatment, such as: Sclerotherapy: A long needle is used to puncture the cyst under ultrasound guidance, then the cyst is drained and filled with a solution to harden it. This procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis with local anesthesia. Laparoscopy: A surgeon uses a laparoscope, a tube with a small video camera, to locate the cyst. The cyst is drained, then removed or burned. This procedure is performed in a hospital with general anesthesia and may require a one or two day stay.

my foreskin won't pull back without a lot of pain is there any cream or medicine that can help instead of needing surgery
Topical steroid creams may help retract the foreskin; if ineffective, circumcision remains a definitive treatment.
