I'm dealing with a condition called balanitis, and it's been going on for quite a while now. Could you suggest any creams or tablets that might help?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Hi there i understand your concern regarding your genital health...The main cause of balanitis is poor hygiene. Poor hygiene causes harmful bacteria to overpopulate the area, which can lead to infection...it can be fungal as well... Clinical examination is necessary to diagnose it and to rule out other possible conditions....you may require antibiotic or antifungal creams..Before applying any treatment option, it is important to avoid using irritants such as perfumed soap, lotion, or powder. This prevents further irritation of the foreskin...Consult nearest dermatologist they will do the needful.

View allI'm worried because I ejaculate too early and I'm concerned my penis might be smaller and weaker than normal. It's less than 5 inches, which is making me anxious. Can you advise on whether this is something I should be really worried about or if there are any ways to improve this situation?
It's important to know that many factors, including anxiety and stress, can affect sexual performance and perception of body size. If you're concerned about premature ejaculation or erectile strength, I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider who can guide you on potential treatments, therapy, and lifestyle changes to improve both physical and mental well-being.

I've been having mild but constant pain and heaviness in my left testicle and was recently diagnosed with Grade 1 Varicocele. Do I need surgery for this or are there other options to manage it?
For Grade 1 varicocele, which is a mild form with small, dilated veins, surgery is often not necessary unless it's causing significant pain or fertility issues. In most cases, non-surgical management like ice packs, pain medication, and supportive underwear can help manage symptoms. If pain persists, or if fertility is affected, surgery (varicocelectomy) might be recommended
