I'm having a problem with the skin on my penis not retracting during sex with my partner. It seems like it's not opening properly. I've been using oil whenever we have sex, but I'm not sure if that's okay. Is there something I should be doing differently, or should I be worried about this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing tightness of the foreskin, a condition known as phimosis, which can make it difficult for the skin to retract during sex. Applying a lubricant, such as oil, can help reduce friction, but its important to consult a doctor for an accurate diagnosis and explore treatment options, such as gentle stretching exercises or, in some cases, medical intervention.

View allI've been reading about venous leak and I'm really worried can it be treated with pills or is surgery the only option? I've heard leaving it untreated can mess with mental health like causing anxiety or low self-esteem and I'm not sure what to do
Yes, venous leakage (also known as veno-occlusive dysfunction) can often be treated without surgery. Several non-surgical options are available, including medication, endovascular procedures, and other interventions. The most effective treatment plan will depend on the individual's specific circumstances and the severity of their symptoms

I've had this white sticky stuff under my foreskin for years, but last week when I cleaned it, I noticed a bunch of tiny white pimples like 20 or 30 around the inside of my foreskin when I pulled it back. They're super small but freaking me out. I'm 19 and really stressed could this be something serious like penile cancer? Would surgery to remove the foreskin help? What could this be?
It's understandable that you're worried about the white, sticky stuff and the small pimples under your foreskin. It's important to get a proper diagnosis from a doctor

I'm 26 and dealing with phimosis my foreskin won't retract past the head of my penis. I really don't want to get surgery. Are there other ways to manage this or make it better?
conservative therapy is advised to the patient.
