I'm dealing with a tight foreskin problem. It's really not soft, and when my penis is erect, it feels hard, and I can't fully pull it back. I'm a bit worried about this. Can you suggest any treatments or options for this issue?

You're experiencing symptoms of phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to be retracted; treatment options include topical steroid creams like betamethasone to loosen the skin, manual stretching exercises, or in severe cases, circumcision or preputioplasty surgery, so consult a urologist

View allI've been struggling with phimosis where I can't pull back the skin during an erection. Is there any Ayurvedic treatment that can help with this? Can it be fixed without needing surgery?
Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin can't be pulled back from the head of the penis. It's normal in babies and small children, and they usually grow out of it. It can also be caused by infections, scar tissue, and skin diseases, and may need to be treated with steroid cream or surgery

After my circumcision, I've noticed swelling around the surgery area is this normal? I had the procedure done because of swelling on my penis after sex, and now I'm a bit worried about the recovery. How long should this last?

I'm 19 and dealing with scrotal calcinosis there are about 34 medium-sized cysts and a few new ones starting to form. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? I'm really worried about it getting worse.
While scrotal calcinosis is a condition that may require surgery for definitive treatment, especially when cosmetic concerns arise, there are some alternative approaches that may be considered before surgery. These include observation, laser therapy, and cryotherapy, depending on the severity and location of the calcinosis.
