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 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 experience early leakage. Can you guide me on what might be happening and suggest possible solutions?

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..

I've been dealing with this issue for years nowwhen my penis is erect, the foreskin just won't retract, and it's super painful if I try to pull it back. Can you give me some advice on what might be going on?

Daflon (Diosmin) is typically used to treat hemorrhoids and chronic venous insufficiency. If your hemorrhoids recur, you can take Daflon again, but consult your doctor first. The usual dosage is 1 tablet (450-500 mg) twice a day, taken during meals. Precautions: - Inform your doctor about any underlying medical conditions, such as kidney or liver disease. - Monitor your blood pressure and blood sugar levels while taking Daflon. - Avoid taking Daflon with other medications that may interact with it, such as blood thinners. Always follow your doctor's advice and the recommended dosage.
