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.

Hey, I've got a situation where there's a lot of foreskin at the tip of my penis, and I'm finding it tough to retract it fully. It's really bothering me and I kinda want to be able to pull it back easily. Any advice on what I can do about this?

I'm feeling this constant pain that starts from my lower back and moves upwards, plus there's pain around my groin area. It's been pretty uncomfortable, and I'm worried because it also feels weird at the end of peeing. It kind of started with a burning sensation when passing urine and semen. I tried some temporary treatments with medicines like Silofast, Gabapin NT, and Liofen Ten, which eased the pain a bit, but once I stopped, the problems came back. I've done tests like USG, Urine Test, Uric Acid Test, Creatinine Test, and a Lipid Profile, and everything seems normal except my Uric Acid level, which is at 6.39. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on and what can I do to get the relief I'm looking for. Any ideas?

It seems you may be experiencing a combination of musculoskeletal pain and urinary issues. While your tests were mostly normal, the elevated uric acid might indicate a mild predisposition to gout or other joint issues. It's important to continue addressing pain with physical therapy, manage uric acid levels, and consider further evaluation of your urinary symptoms. A follow-up with a urologist or a pain specialist may help refine the diagnosis.
