I've noticed that my glans are really sensitive, to the point where it's uncomfortable to touch them. My foreskin retracts just fine without any issues, but I'm wondering if this level of sensitivity is something normal or if I should be concerned about it. Could you help me understand what's going on here?

View allI'm really worried about my cousin because he still has some penile discharge even after taking medication for a confirmed STD. It's very little but still makes him uncomfortable. He's interested in doing an STD test, but not for HIV, and he's in Pune. Could you guide us on where he can get that done?
I'm here to help you with sleep tips. *Identifying the Cause* Before we dive into solutions, let's consider possible reasons for your insomnia: 1. *Stress and anxiety* 2. *Uncomfortable sleep environment* 3. *Irregular sleep schedule* 4. *Physical discomfort or pain* 5. *Caffeine or nicotine consumption* 6. *Electronic screen usage before bed* *Sleep-Promoting Strategies* Try these evidence-based techniques to improve your sleep: 1. *Establish a consistent sleep schedule*: Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. 2. *Create a relaxing bedtime routine*: Engage in calming activities like reading, meditation, or deep breathing exercises. 3. *Optimize your sleep environment*: Make your bedroom dark, quiet, and cool. Invest in a comfortable mattress and pillows. 4. *Limit exposure to screens before bed*: Avoid using electronic devices for at least an hour before bedtime. 5. *Avoid stimulating activities before bed*: Steer clear of intense exercise, playing video games, or watching exciting movies at least two hours before bedtime. 6. *Try progressive muscle relaxation*: Tense and then relax different muscle groups in your body to release physical tension. 7. *Consider keeping a sleep diary*: Record your sleep patterns, including the time you go to bed, wake up, and the quality of your sleep. *Additional Tips* 1. *Avoid caffeine and nicotine*: Both can disrupt sleep patterns and make it harder to fall asleep. 2. *Limit naps*: If you're having trouble sleeping, try to avoid napping during the day. If you do need to nap, keep it short (under 30 minutes) and avoid napping close to bedtime. 3. *Get regular exercise*: Regular physical activity can help improve sleep quality, but avoid vigorous exercise within a few hours of bedtime. *When to Seek Professional Help* If you've tried these strategies and still struggle with sleep, consider consulting: 1. *A healthcare professional*: Discuss your sleep concerns with your primary care physician or a sleep specialist. 2. *A therapist*: Cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) can be an effective approach to addressing sleep issues.

I'm a 21-year-old guy and I've got some worries about my penis size. I'm around 5.4 feet tall and weigh 74 kg. My size is about 5.3 to 5.4 inches, and I just don't feel okay with it. Is there anything I can do to increase it? What's the best way to go about this?
It's important to know that there are no medications or treatments that have been scientifically proven to permanently increase penis size. However, there are surgical options available such as penile implants or injections, but these come with risks and are usually reserved for individuals with medical conditions affecting the penis. For non-surgical options, you can try penile exercises such as jelqing or stretching exercises, but it's important to be cautious as these may cause injury if not done correctly. Additionally, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, a balanced diet, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol intake can help improve overall sexual health. It's important to remember that penis size does not determine sexual satisfaction, and communication with your partner is key. If you have further concerns, I recommend speaking with a urologist for personalized advice and guidance.
