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've lost about 3 kg this week, but I'm a bit concerned because whenever I'm cycling, it feels like my private area goes numb. I'm also taking Lippo 6 Black as a fat burner. Can you tell me what's going on and what I should do?

If your foreskin is tight and difficult to retract, a steroid cream may help. Topical steroid creams, like those containing betamethasone, hydrocortisone, or triamcinolone, can reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin. Applying the cream regularly as directed by a doctor, along with gentle stretching exercises, can improve retraction

I've had a tilted penis since I was a kid, bending downwards and to the left kind of like a banana. Everything else like length and width, especially during an erection, seems normal and there's no pain. I read online about Peyronie's disease, but I don't think that's what I have since it's been this way since childhood and it's painless. The bend makes it difficult to penetrate during sex. Are there any proven treatments, invasive or non-invasive, that could help with this? Is it possible for me to have a regular straight penis?

Thats usually normal amd many individuals will be having the same,for your concern vist urologist for appropriate approach
