I'm having trouble pulling back the foreskin on my penis, and it's causing a really uncomfortable tightness at the tip during full erections and when trying to insert. On top of that, I'm dealing with premature ejaculation. Should I be seeing a urologist for this, or is a general surgeon the better option? Also, is there a connection between this issue with my foreskin, phimosis I think it's called, and premature ejaculation?

You should consult a urologist, as they specialize in genital and urinary tract issues, including phimosis (difficulty retracting the foreskin) and premature ejaculation (PE); while phimosis and PE can coexist, they are not directly related, but treating phimosis through circumcision, preputioplasty, or frenuloplasty may help alleviate discomfort and tightness, which could indirectly improve PE symptoms, and a urologist can assess and address both concerns.

I've noticed that my penis seems smaller in both length and width compared to how it was before, and it feels like it's shrinking over time. Is there any medication or treatment available to help get it back to its previous size?
hey, length of penis remains the same , it will not decrease , don't worry, it attains max length during erection and shrinks afterwards

I'm dealing with a recurring issue where I feel a burning sensation in my scrotum, but it's not constant. It kicks in after I've been driving for more than 30 minutes or sitting for a long time. I already talked to a dermatologist who suggested I try HH Zole ointments, but after using it for a week, I haven't seen much improvement. Could you please offer some advice?
The intermittent burning sensation in your scrotum, triggered by prolonged driving or sitting, may be due to a fungal infection, friction, or irritation; since the prescribed HH Zole ointment (an antifungal) was ineffective, consider consulting a urologist to rule out other conditions, such as epididymitis, orchitis, or a urinary tract infection, and explore alternative treatments, like antifungal oral medications, steroid creams, or lifestyle modifications, including wearing loose-fitting clothing, avoiding tight underwear, and taking regular breaks to stretch and move during long drives.
