I'm having trouble with getting a proper erection, and my penis takes a while to get hard. Even when it does, it's not the firmness I'd expect. Plus, I'm experiencing quick discharge during sex with my partner, which is really causing me some embarrassment. I'm feeling quite ashamed and would appreciate any advice or solutions you might have.

-I'm really sorry you're feeling this way, but don't be ashamed. It's common for men to experience issues with erections or premature ejaculation at times. Stress, anxiety, and other factors can contribute to this, so I recommend speaking with a healthcar

I'm pretty worried because during sex I accidentally cut my frenulum and it bled quite a bit. The bleeding stopped after a while, but it's been a couple of days now, and I feel pain when my penis gets hard. It's strange because the pain comes and goes throughout the day, but there's none when I pee or otherwise. I read somewhere that I shouldn't panic and it might heal on its own in a few weeks, but I'd really like to know if there's any medication or treatment I could use to recover faster. Any advice would be really helpful.

Based on your description, it sounds like you have experienced a frenulum tear. To help with the pain and promote healing, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen. I recommend taking ibuprofen 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. Additionally, applying an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to the affected area twice a day can help prevent infection and aid in healing. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. In case of persistent or worsening symptoms, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
