I'm dealing with a problem where the foreskin on my penis is really tight, and I can't pull it back at all. I can't see the inside of my penis, and it seems like others my age can do this easily. I've heard that having a tight foreskin can cause pain and maybe even bleeding during sex. I'm not sure what I should do about it, could you help me out with some advice?

To address this issue, you can try using a topical steroid cream such as Betamethasone 0.05% cream. Apply a small amount of the cream to the tight part of the foreskin twice a day for about 4-6 weeks. This can help to reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin. In severe cases where conservative measures do not work, a circumcision may be recommended by a healthcare professional. This is a minor surgical procedure where the foreskin is removed. However, it is important to consult with a doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific situation.

I'm a 64-year-old guy, and I've had this high fever since yesterday. I'm also dealing with frequent Urination every couple of hours, but it feels like I have to go more than what actually comes out. My doctor suggested Citralka and Dolo, but I'm wondering if there's any other medication I should be taking? Could this frequent urination be a sign of something more serious?
CT value of 32 in your husband's RT-PCR test result indicates that the test detected a relatively low amount of viral RNA. This suggests that the infection is likely mild, and he may be less contagious . However, it's essential to note that CT values aren't always a perfect indicator of infectivity or symptom severity. Some studies have shown that people with high CT values (above 30) can still be infectious, although the likelihood decreases . Given your husband's mild symptoms, such as a cough and sore throat, and a high oxygen saturation level (SpO2 of 99), it's likely that he's experiencing a mild case of COVID-19.

My penis curves to the left when erect and I'm really worried about it. I'm 24 and unmarried is this something that needs treatment or surgery to straighten it out?
A curved penis, especially during erection, can be normal, but it's crucial to determine if it's due to a natural variation or a condition like Peyronie's disease. If the curvature is severe, painful, or causes difficulty with intercourse, it may warrant treatment, which could include medication or surgery
