I'm having some trouble and really need some advice. For about a week now, I've been experiencing a heavy pain and a burning sensation when I pull the skin back on my penis. It also hurts the same way when I urinate and even when I go potty. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm not sure whether I should see a dermatologist or a sexologist about this. Could you guide me on which doctor would be the best to consult?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted infection. It is important to consult a Urologist for a proper evaluation and treatment. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like Ibuprofen and drink plenty of water to help with the burning sensation.

An ayurvedic doctor says he can treat my undescended right testicle that's still up in my abdomen without surgery should I trust this approach or is surgery the only real option? I'm worried about risks if I delay proper treatment

With hormone treatment, your child is given shots of a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin. This could cause the testicle to move to the scrotum. But hormone treatment often is not recommended, because it's much less effective than surgery.

I have bilateral varicocele and sometimes feel pain in my scrotum area. I'm really not keen on surgery are there any effective ayurvedic treatments that could help manage this condition?

While Ayurveda can offer supportive strategies for managing pain and potential fertility issues associated with varicocele, it's crucial to understand that Ayurvedic treatments are not a substitute for medical diagnosis and conventional treatment. Varicocele is primarily managed with medical procedures like surgery, and Ayurveda can be used alongside conventional treatment to address symptoms and improve overall well-being
