I'm really struggling with erectile dysfunction and it's starting to ruin my marriage. It wasn't such a big deal at first, but it just hasn't gone away. We've been married for four years now and it's gotten to the point where we don't even have any intimacy anymore because of this. What should I do? Can you help?

Erectile dysfunction (ED) can be emotionally challenging, especially in a marital context; consider consulting a urologist or a sex therapist to address underlying causes, which may include physical factors (e.g., diabetes, hypertension), psychological factors (e.g., anxiety, depression), or lifestyle factors (e.g., smoking, obesity); counseling and therapy can also help you and your partner reconnect and strengthen your relationship.

View allI'm really worried about some issues I've been having recently. About a month and a half ago, I noticed my penis was itching and there was redness, a rash, and accumulated smegma. I'm uncircumcised and after searching online, I thought it might be balanitis. I've been applying coconut oil daily on my foreskin for over a month now, and while the rash, redness, and itchiness have gone, I've still got some cracks and cuts on the tip of my foreskin. I wash it daily, but for the past two weeks, there's been dry skin forming around the foreskin every day, even though I clean it regularly. On top of that, I recently had a really hard stool and now my anus is itchy and swollen. I used coconut oil for the itch, which helped, but the swelling is still there. I'm not sure what's going on with my penis and anus. Should I be washing off this dry skin that forms daily? Also, which type of doctor should I consult for these issues? Are there any home remedies you can suggest to help with these cuts and cracks? I'm really concerned and would appreciate any advice.
Your symptoms may be caused due to dehydration. Increase your fluid intake on a daily basis and improve your genital hygiene by drying yourself well after each wash. Use non-irritant moisturisers and if the problem exacerbates, you should consider visiting a dermatologist.

I've noticed a small pea-sized lump inside the shaft of my penis this morning. It's not painful, but I'm a bit concerned. I had sex last nightcould this lump be related to that? What could it possibly be?
