I've been dealing with this ongoing issue where the foreskin on my penis gets really tender and then cracks. This seems to happen quite oftenit heals and then just cracks again. I'm getting a bit worried about it. What could be causing this, and how can I prevent it from continuing?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
You may be experiencing a condition called balanitis, which is inflammation of the foreskin. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 2 weeks to treat any possible fungal infection. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, and avoiding harsh soaps or irritants can help prevent further cracking. If the symptoms persist, it is important to see a doctor for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been using Himalaya Confido tablets twice a day like you suggested, and I'm just wondering, will these actually help with increasing the size?
Hello! Himalaya Confido is an herbal supplement often used to support male reproductive health and improve stamina. While it may help with overall wellness, it is unlikely to directly increase the size. If you're concerned about any specific results, it's always a good idea to discuss them with your doctor for more personalized advice.

My husband has been diagnosed with a varicocele and his sperm count is low. We're trying to conceive but having trouble. The doctor mentioned surgery as an option but we're wondering if there are other treatments that don't involve surgery. Can you look at his test reports and suggest what we should do next?

I'm really worried because my doctor told me to take Ivermectol 12 mg every 4 days for my hydrocele, but I haven't seen any results yet. Should I be concerned that it's not working, or might there be something else I should try?
Ivermectol 12mg is typically used to treat parasitic infections, not hydrocele. _Hydrocele Treatment_ 1. _Needle aspiration_: A procedure where a needle is inserted to drain the fluid. 2. _Surgery (hydrocelectomy)_: A surgical procedure to remove the hydrocele sac. _Ivermectol for Hydrocele_ Using Ivermectol for hydrocele treatment is unconventional and may not be effective. Ivermectol is an antiparasitic medication, and hydrocele is a condition characterized by fluid accumulation in the scrotum. _Recommendations_ 1. _Consult a urologist_: Schedule an appointment with a urologist to discuss alternative treatment options. 2. _Re-evaluate treatment_: Consider needle aspiration or surgery, which are more effective treatments for hydrocele. 3. _Stop Ivermectol_: Discontinue taking Ivermectol, as it may not be addressing the underlying condition.
