I'm experiencing a lot of pain during sex and I'm not sure if it's because of a short frenulum or something else. I also have a hard time opening it properly when it becomes erect. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing pain due to a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to be pulled back over the head of the penis. This can be caused by a short frenulum. I recommend using a topical steroid cream like Betamethasone (0.05%) to help loosen the foreskin. Apply a small amount to the tight area twice a day for about 4-6 weeks. If this does not improve your symptoms, you may need to consider a circumcision or a frenuloplasty procedure. Please consult with a urologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been thinking about using Manforce Staylong tablets just once to see if it can help me last longer during sex. I don't have any issues with getting or maintaining an erection, and my heart health is good. Is it safe to use it even if I don't really have erectile problems, just to help with ejaculation time?

Using **Manforce Staylong** occasionally for improving ejaculation time is generally considered safe for most people, especially if you don't have any heart-related issues. However, its important to consult with a healthcare provider to ensure it's appropriate for your specific needs and to discuss potential side effects. Always use medications as directed.

My penis is currently 5 inches long and 4 inches around, but I'd like to increase it to 7 inches in length and 6 inches in girth. Are there any safe surgical options to achieve this? I'm open to considering surgery if it's effective and reliable.

It is normal ,nothing to worry.If still facing issues please consult dermatologist.
