I'm really concerned about the size of my penis and I'm hoping for some advice on how to increase it. Right now, when it's hard, it's about 5 inches, but I wish it were a bit larger. Can you offer any suggestions on this?

It's completely normal to have concerns about body image, but it's important to understand that size and thickness are often less significant than factors like intimacy, trust, and communication in relationships. There are no proven medications or treatments for increasing penis thickness. If you're still concerned, I recommend speaking to a urologist for personalized advice and support.

my son had hypospadias surgery and we've been in the hospital for 8 days now today i noticed a little wetness on the outer dressing could this cause any issues

A small amount of wetness on the outer dressing after hypospadias surgery is usually normal, but it's important to monitor for any signs of infection or excessive bleeding. If the wetness is limited and not accompanied by other concerning symptoms, it might just be residual fluid or a small amount of bleeding, which is expected in the first few days after surgery. However, if the wetness is excessive, there's a foul odor, or if your son has a fever, redness, or increased pain around the incision, it could indicate an infection and you should contact his healthcare provider immediately.

My foreskin feels really tight when I get an erection and it's causing discomfort. I don't have issues when I'm not erect, but during arousal, it gets too tight. Is there any way to fix this without surgery? I'd prefer non-surgical options if possible.
