I've been bed humping since I was a kid, like maybe from 6th or 7th grade. Now that I'm having real sex, my penis gets hard at first but then it just doesn't stay that way. Is there something wrong, or is it normal? What can I do about it?

I'm a 27-year-old guy from Chennai and I've been feeling like my penile frenulum seems a bit too short. I recently heard about frenuloplasty, but I'm not sure where to start. Could you advise on who would be the right specialist to consult and where I might be able to get this procedure done?

Dengue is not contagious in the classical sense, as it cannot be spread directly from person to person. However, it can be transmitted through: 1. Mosquito bites: The primary vector for dengue is the Aedes mosquito, which feeds on the blood of infected individuals and then transmits the virus to others. 2. Blood transfusions: In rare cases, dengue can be transmitted through blood transfusions from an infected donor. 3. Organ transplantation: Dengue can also be transmitted through organ transplantation from an infected donor. To prevent dengue, take the following precautions: 1. *Eliminate mosquito breeding sites*: Remove standing water from containers, flowerpots, and other areas around your home. 2. *Use mosquito repellents*: Apply insect repellents containing DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus to exposed skin and clothing. 3. *Wear protective clothing*: Wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and socks when outdoors, especially during peak mosquito hours. 4. *Use mosquito nets*: If you're sleeping outdoors or in an area without screens, use a mosquito net to cover your bed. 5. *Install window and door screens*: Make sure screens are in good condition and free of holes. 6. *Use air conditioning*: Mosquitoes are less active in cooler temperatures, so using air conditioning can help reduce the risk of bites. 7. *Get vaccinated*: If you live in or plan to travel to areas with high dengue transmission, consider getting vaccinated. The Dengvaxia vaccine is available in some countries for individuals aged 9-45. Symptoms of dengue typically appear within 3-14 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito. The symptoms can range from mild to severe and may include: 1. *Fever*: High temperature, usually above 104F (40C). 2. *Severe headache*: Pain is often described as piercing or burning. 3. *Pain behind the eyes*: Eye pain is common, especially when moving the eyes. 4. *Joint and muscle pain*: Pain and stiffness in the joints, muscles, and bones. 5. *Rash*: A red, patchy rash may appear on the skin, usually 2-5 days after the onset of fever. 6. *Nausea and vomiting*: Some people may experience stomach upset, nausea, and vomiting. 7. *Fatigue*: Feeling extremely tired and weak. In severe cases, dengue can lead to: 1. *Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF)*: A rare but life-threatening complication characterized by severe bleeding, low platelet count, and blood plasma leakage. 2. *Dengue shock syndrome (DSS)*: A severe complication of DHF, characterized by a sudden drop in blood pressure, leading to shock and potentially life-threatening complications.

I recently got married and had an issue during sex with my wife. It seems like the skin connecting the inner part of my penis got torn. The doctor I saw recommended a frenuloplasty. I'm really worried about having surgery and would love to know if there are other options to fix this without going through with an operation. Could you suggest any alternatives?

I'm noticing this red spot on the inner upper side of my penis glans. It doesn't hurt or itch, but I've observed it gets darker red after I masturbate or have sex, and otherwise, it just stays light red. Is this something I should be worried about?

Consult to a urologist for physical examination to be done.
