I've noticed that the skin on the upper part of my penis doesn't open up properly, and the last time I had sex, it started bleeding and was really painful. I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you give me some advice?

It sounds like you may have experienced a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to retract fully. It's important to avoid any further trauma to the area. I recommend seeing a healthcare provider, preferably a urologist, for a proper examination and treatment options, which may include topical treatments or, in some cases, a minor surgical procedure.

I'm really confused and concerned about my semen analysis results from a couple of days ago. The report showed a count of 8 million per ml and motility at 45%. This morning, I tried a home test by adding semen to water, and I noticed that about 90% of it sank. Could you explain what it means when semen sinks or floats? I'm really curious and worried.
Thank you for your query. Typically, semen that sinks in water may indicate lower sperm motility or vitality, as healthy sperm are more likely to float. However, it's important to consider that a home test may not provide an accurate representation of sperm health. I recommend discussing these results with a healthcare provider for further analysis and guidance.
