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 recently got married and whenever I try to have sex with my wife, the skin on my penis hurts because it hasn't separated properly. I don't want to remove all the skin, just the top part that's attached to the penis. What would be the cost of that? What should I do, and if there's surgery required, how much would it cost?

It sounds like you may have a condition called **phimosis** or tight foreskin. A minor procedure like a **frenuloplasty** or partial circumcision can address this without removing the full skin. I recommend consulting a urologist for an evaluation. Costs can vary but are typically around 10,000-30,000 in most clinics, depending on the procedure and location.
