I'm having trouble fully retracting the skin on my penis because it seems attached to the frenulum. What can I do to address this, and is there an easy way to deal with it?

You cant remove it.if it is painful or unable to retract the foreskin,then that could be phymosis for which you have to visit your surgeon for appropriate management.

View allI'm dealing with this stubborn fungal-like infection on my buttocks for a couple of months now. I've been using an ointment to try and get rid of it, but it's just not going away. It hasn't spread, which is a relief, but it's still there like it just won't budge. What could be the reason it's not healing? Is there something else I should be doing or using to finally get rid of it?

I have some cut marks on my hand and they're really bothering me. How can I get rid of them? Also, what's the cost for surgery to remove these marks? I'm feeling pretty upset about how they look and would like to know my options as soon as possible.
For older scars like yours, besides laser treatment, you can consider using topical silicone gel sheets or silicone gel. These can help improve the appearance of the scar over time. Make sure to apply them as directed by the manufacturer.
