I'm really having trouble getting an erection lately no matter what I try, from watching porn to sexting or even phone sex, nothing seems to work. It's starting to worry me, and I feel like I've tried everything. Could there be something wrong or something I'm missing?

It's understandable to feel concerned about this. Difficulty in achieving an erection can be due to stress, anxiety, lifestyle factors, or underlying health issues like hormonal imbalances or circulatory problems. Please consider consulting a doctor to evaluate potential causes and explore effective treatments.

View allI'm dealing with balanitis and I'm really worried about it. I've started noticing some bleeding from a cut on the side of my penis. What should I do about this? How can I get it treated?
you need to be cautious and gentle with the affected area, and if the balanitis is causing bleeding or is not improving, it is crucial to see a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. If there is any sign of infection or if the area doesn't heal properly, professional medical treatment will be necessary.

I've noticed that a year ago, my right kidney was measured at 10cm during an abdominal ultrasound. I recently had another scan done at a different diagnostic center, and they measured my right kidney at 9.1cm. Should I be worried about this change in size, even though everything else seems normal with no issues reported? What do you think?
Phimosis can be uncomfortable and affect your quality of life. While surgery is often recommended, there are some non-surgical methods you can try to help manage your symptoms: *Non-Surgical Methods* 1. *Stretching exercises*: Gently stretch your foreskin over a period of time to help loosen it. You can try using a lubricant to reduce friction. 2. *Topical creams*: Apply topical creams or ointments containing steroids, such as betamethasone, to help reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin. 3. *Bath therapy*: Soak in a warm bath for 10-15 minutes, 2-3 times a week, to help relax the foreskin and make it more pliable. 4. *Manual manipulation*: Gently manipulate your foreskin under the guidance of a healthcare professional to help loosen it. *Precautions* 1. *Avoid forceful retraction*: Don't force your foreskin to retract, as this can cause injury, bleeding, or scarring. 2. *Monitor for infection*: Watch for signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, increased pain, or discharge. 3. *Consult a doctor*: If you experience any severe symptoms or if your symptoms worsen, consult a doctor for guidance. *When to Consider Surgery* 1. *Severe symptoms*: If you experience severe pain, difficulty urinating, or recurrent infections. 2. *Failed non-surgical methods*: If you've tried non-surgical methods without success. 3. *Complications*: If you develop complications, such as paraphimosis (foreskin trapped behind the glans), seek immediate medical attention.
