Hi, I have a concern about my testicle sack being loose, both at rest and during sex. Is this something to worry about or is it a medical condition? Im looking for advice on whether its normal and which specialist I should consult to help with tightening it. Please guide me.

Hello, its normal for the scrotum (testicle sack) to become loose or tighten depending on temperature or arousal. However, if youre concerned or experiencing discomfort, its best to consult a urologist who can evaluate your condition and provide guidance.

I had sex for the first time on Friday night, and now Im feeling some pain in my penis because the skin seems to have peeled. The front part is also reddish. The pain is a bit less than it was two days ago, but Im still concerned. What should I do?

To alleviate the discomfort, apply a topical antibiotic cream, keep the area clean, and avoid further irritation if the pain persists, or you experience difficulty urinating, increased redness, or swelling, consult a urologist for further guidance.

I experience nightfall about 5 to 7 times a month, where a white sticky liquid comes out, and I think it might be sperm. However, when I try to masturbate like most guys do, nothing comes out except urine. I also had sex with my girlfriend using a condom, but even then, I didnt feel like sperm came out. Does this mean I can have a baby?

Nightfall (nocturnal emission) is a normal phenomenon, especially during adolescence and early adulthood. The frequency you've described (5-7 times a month) is within the normal range.Regarding your concerns:_The white sticky liquid_ is likely semen, which contains sperm._Masturbation_: It's normal if nothing comes out except urine, as the body may not always produce semen during masturbation._Sex with condom_: Using a condom prevents sperm from entering the partner's body, so it's expected that you wouldn't feel sperm coming out._Fertility_: Nightfall and masturbation don't affect fertility. As long as you have normal semen production and sperm count, you can father a child.If you're concerned about your fertility or have questions, consider consulting:1. A urologist or andrologist (specialists in male reproductive health)2. A sexologist or a counselor (for guidance on sexual health and relationships)Remember, it's essential to practice safe sex and use protection to prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancy.

Bloating typically doesn't directly cause nerve pain in the penis, but pressure from abdominal bloating might irritate nearby nerves, potentially leading to discomfort.

My doctor says theres nothing they can do, but Ive noticed that going to the gym or doing certain workouts causes pain in my abdomen and testicle.

Varicocele is usually caused by the enlargement of the veins within the scrotum, often referred to as the "pampiniform plexus."

It doesn't actually increase your size, but it will look that way..

I've been facing erectile dysfunction recently. Even when I can get an erection, it doesnt last long. This issue has only come up recently, and before that, I was leading a normal, healthy life. What could be causing this?

I'm sorry to hear about your concerns. Erectile dysfunction can be influenced by various factors, including stress, lifestyle changes, or underlying health issues. I recommend discussing this with a healthcare provider who can assess your situation and offer appropriate guidance or treatment options.

I have a kidney stone of about 98 mm, which I've had for the past 2 months. I haven't had much pain, but I'm worried about whether the stone will pass on its own without treatment. Some people say that even after treatment, the stone might come back. Ive been drinking a lot of water and coconut water, and I feel a little better now. I also walk every morning and do some light exercises. My doctor mentioned that the stone is almost 1 cm, and it wont pass without treatment. Are there any foods I should avoid, like tomatoes, or any other advice on managing this?

Kidney stones of 9-10mm usually don't pass on their own without treatment, especially if there is no severe pain. While drinking plenty of water and staying active are great for kidney health, it's important to follow your doctor's advice for treatment. To avoid recurrence, limit foods high in oxalates (like spinach, beets, and chocolate), salt, and animal protein. Regular check-ups are crucial for monitoring your condition.

Ive been wondering about the effects of masturbation, whether occasional or frequent, on both the body and mind. Could you explain the pros and cons? Im starting to feel like its making me a bit lazy and not as motivated.

Masturbation, whether occasional or frequent, is generally a normal activity and can have both positive and negative effects. Occasional masturbation can reduce stress and help with relaxation, but frequent or compulsive behavior may lead to feelings of fatigue, distraction, or affect motivation. If you feel it's impacting your energy levels or daily life, it might be helpful to assess your habits and consider moderation.

Hi, I'm dealing with a lot of pain in my penis, and it's been really uncomfortable. Im not sure whats causing it, but its starting to worry me. Can someone help or tell me what this might be?

In the meantime, avoid any activities that may worsen the pain, and seek medical attention as soon as possible for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I had sex with a prostitute and the condom broke. I dont know her STD status. About a week later, I noticed genital warts, so Ive been using Monolox antibiotics, Flonida cream (even though its recommended twice a week, I started using it daily after the first 2 weeks), and Supirocin ointment daily. Now, after about 3 weeks, Ive noticed some swelling and redness around the opening of my penis on one side. Could this be a sign of an STD or could it be due to the Flonida cream? The skin folds when I apply the cream and it touches the tip of my penis. Im really worried. Could this be a sign of herpes? What type of doctor should I consult?

It sounds like the swelling and redness you're experiencing could be related to the use of Flonida cream, especially if it is coming into contact with sensitive areas like the tip of your penis. However, since genital warts and other STDs can present with similar symptoms, I strongly recommend consulting a dermatologist or a venereologist (specialist in sexually transmitted diseases) for a proper diagnosis and to rule out any concerns like herpes or other infections. It's important to get a professional opinion for peace of mind.

Im having issues with my sex stamina and size, and its affecting my relationship. My penis size feels small and Im not able to satisfy my wife during sex. Can you suggest ways to improve stamina and address these concerns?

It's important to remember that sexual satisfaction involves emotional connection, communication, and mutual understanding, not just physical factors. If you're concerned about stamina or size, consulting a healthcare provider can help address any underlying issues and explore options like lifestyle changes, counseling, or treatments that may improve your confidence and performance.

Ive been struggling with low stamina lately, and I think its because of frequent masturbation during my younger years. Now Im concerned about my energy levels and size. What can I do to regain my stamina and overall energy? Is there a way to improve it?

It's important to understand that occasional masturbation does not cause long-term harm, but excessive behavior might lead to temporary fatigue or decreased energy. To regain stamina, focus on a balanced diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and stress management. If you feel persistent issues, consider consulting a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

Sometimes, I feel short of breath while urinating, but it doesnt happen oftenmaybe 5-6 times that I can remember. The last time it happened was about 5 months ago. I dont have any medical history or other health issues. What could be the possible cause, and is there anything I can do about it? If I need to see a doctor, which type of specialist should I consult?

Its possible that the shortness of breath while urinating could be related to a temporary imbalance in the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary functions like breathing and bladder control. However, it could also indicate an underlying issue like a heart condition or a urinary tract issue. Since it's been infrequent and you have no medical history, its advisable to consult a general physician or cardiologist for a thorough evaluation.

I'm having some trouble during sex. My penis is fine when I'm not doing anything, but when it comes to having sex, it stops working, and theres no movement. I'm not sure whats happening. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing erectile dysfunction, which can have both physical and psychological causes, such as stress, anxiety, or underlying health conditions. I recommend consulting a doctor to evaluate your overall health and discuss treatment options tailored to your needs.

Ive been masturbating frequently for about two years, but after learning it could harm my penis, I stopped. Ive noticed that my penis is now curved to the right and the color of the head has changed in some spots. Do I need to see a doctor or will it heal on its own now that Ive stopped?

It's good that you've stopped, but changes in the shape or color of your penis could indicate a condition that needs attention. A curved penis could be a sign of Peyronie's disease, and changes in color might suggest other concerns. It's best to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and guidance on treatment.

How can I tell the difference between congenital phimosis and phimosis in adults? Is phimosis related to impotence in any way? Also, is it possible to treat congenital phimosis with betamethasone cream instead of surgery?

Congenital phimosis is present from birth, where the foreskin cannot be retracted due to a tight opening, while phimosis in adults often develops due to scarring or infection. Phimosis is not considered impotence, as it primarily affects the foreskin's ability to retract, not erectile function. Betamethasone cream can be effective in mild cases of congenital phimosis by reducing inflammation and allowing easier retraction, but surgery may still be required for more severe cases.

I had protected sex on January 15th, 2017, but after ejaculation, the condom partially slipped off, leaving the tip of my penis exposed. A few days later, I noticed small bumps on my shaft and went to a dermatologist. He diagnosed me with molluscum contagiosum and recommended blood tests for HIV, VDRL, and HBsAg. He prescribed azithromycin and imiquad solution to apply on the bumps, which started shrinking. However, after seven weeks, my HIV, VDRL, and HBsAg tests came back non-reactive. The problem now is that Ive been experiencing penile discharge whenever I pass stool. Im concerned and unsure whats causing this. Could this be related to the molluscum or something else?

Its good to hear that your molluscum is improving with treatment. However, penile discharge during bowel movements may indicate an underlying issue, such as urethritis or infection. It would be best to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and to rule out any additional concerns.

A few months ago, I took Patanjali Shilajeet capsules and since then, Ive been facing issues with premature ejaculation and erectile problems. Im really worried about my future because of this. Can you suggest a treatment or something I should do to improve the situation?

Its possible that the Patanjali Shilajit capsules may have affected your hormonal balance or caused temporary changes. For better management of early discharge and erectile issues, I recommend consulting with a doctor who can evaluate your specific condition and suggest treatments like lifestyle changes, counseling, or medications that address the root cause effectively.

Im experiencing sharp pain at the tip of my penis along with irritation around the foreskin. Do you recommend any general painkillers to use until I can see the doctor on Monday?

It sounds like you may be experiencing inflammation or irritation in the foreskin, which can cause discomfort. For temporary relief, you can take over-the-counter painkillers like paracetamol or ibuprofen, but make sure to follow the recommended dosage. Its best to keep the area clean and avoid any irritants until you can see the doctor on Monday.

Ive been feeling this weird wriggling sensation in my anus, especially at night. I know pinworms are usually something kids get, but Ive also been dealing with some itching down there. Could it be pinworms? Is there a way to check on my own? And are there any over-the-counter treatments that might help, or should I just see a doctor despite feeling embarrassed?

It's possible that you may have pinworms, as they can affect adults too, though it's more common in children. The wriggling sensation and itching at night are typical symptoms. To confirm, you can try the "tape test" (pressing a piece of clear tape to your anus in the morning before bathing) and check for eggs under a microscope. Over-the-counter medications like mebendazole or albendazole can help, but it's best to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Ive been dealing with an infection in my groin area, and my doctor prescribed T Bac 2% ointment. Can I apply it on my penis as well? The skin near the foreskin has turned black and shrunk, and its become tight, so Im struggling to retract it.

It's important to follow your doctor's advice, as the T Bac 2% ointment is typically used for skin infections. Applying it on the penis should be done cautiously, especially if you're experiencing tightness and discoloration. If the skin is shrinking or becoming overly tight, I recommend consulting your doctor for a specific evaluation and tailored treatment plan.

I had a kidney stone removed last year through ureteroscopy and laser, and a stent was placed for two weeks. The stent was removed yesterday, and now my urine is mostly clear with just a little blood. How soon can I have sex after the stent removal? I just want to know when it would be safe to resume sexual activity.

After the removal of your kidney stent, its generally safe to resume sexual activity once any discomfort or bleeding has subsided and you're feeling comfortable. However, it's important to listen to your bodyif there's still slight bleeding or discomfort, its best to wait a few more days. Always consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

Hi doctor, I have phimosis and I saw a urologist who suggested circumcision. Im really scared of surgery though. I asked if there are any other options, but he said my condition is too tight. Are there any non-surgical treatments? Also, when it comes to circumcision in adults, do they use stitches? How much bed rest will I need after the surgery, and how long will it take to fully heal?

I understand your concerns. Unfortunately, if the phimosis is severe and cannot be resolved with other treatments, circumcision is often the recommended option. Yes, stitches are typically used in adult circumcision, and most people need about 1-2 weeks of recovery time, with complete healing taking around 4-6 weeks. Its important to follow your doctor's aftercare advice for the best outcome.

Hi doctor, I sometimes feel like urine gets stuck in my urethra or penis, and it's been going on for 6-7 years now. My bladder thickness is normal, with a pre-void volume of 584ml and post-void 44ml. My prostate is also normal at 20.4 gm. In the mornings, I notice less pressure. A doctor checked it before, applied pressure inside my anus, and some liquid came out of my penis, but everything seemed normal with no infection. Can you help explain why this keeps happening?

It sounds like you're experiencing symptoms of urinary retention or discomfort, which can sometimes occur without any underlying infection or structural issue, as your previous exams showed normal results. If the sensation persists or worsens, it might be helpful to follow up with a urologist for further evaluation to rule out any other causes, such as pelvic floor dysfunction or nerve issues.

I'm 24 years old and Ive noticed that my right testicle hangs lower than the left one. Its been like this for a while, and theres no pain, but it makes me feel really embarrassed. Is this something I should be worried about? What can I do to make things more normal?

It's quite common for one testicle to hang lower than the other, and in most cases, it doesn't indicate any serious issue, especially if there is no pain. However, if you're concerned, it's always a good idea to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions.

While having sex with my wife, as soon as I entered, I noticed my penis started bleeding from the spot where the foreskin connects to the area near the pee hole. Im really scared and unsure about what to do. Can you please guide me on this?

I'm sorry to hear about this. Bleeding from the area where the foreskin is attached could be due to friction or irritation. It's important to keep the area clean and avoid further irritation. If the bleeding continues or you experience pain, it's advisable to consult a healthcare provider for a thorough examination and proper guidance.

I'm 23 years old and I've noticed that the foreskin of my penis is attached to the tip, and it hurts when I try to pull it back. I really dont want to get circumcised, so is there a way to safely detach the foreskin without surgery? What should I do?

Phimosis refers to the inability to retract the distal foreskin over the glans penis. Pathologic phimosis defines an inability to retract the foreskin after it was previously retractible or after puberty, usually secondary to distal scarring of the foreskin.Paraphimosis is the entrapment of a retracted foreskin behind the coronal sulcus. Paraphimosis is a disease of uncircumcised or partially circumcised males....Up to 95% of cases of phimosis have been shown to respond to application of topical steroids to the preputial orifice, although some studies have suggested that this response rate may decline several months after the regimen is completed. An initial attempt at medical intervention has been shown to reduce costs by 27.3% in comparison with primary circumcision as a treatment...consult nearest urologist they will help you further

Ive been feeling a burning sensation after ejaculation. A week ago, I had a urine test and sonography as recommended by a urologist, and the reports were normal. The urologist said not to worry, and I followed the treatment, but Im still facing the same issue. Can you suggest what could be causing this and the best treatment to resolve it?

It's not at all unusual to have a burning sensation with urination immediately or shortly after ejaculation - especially if you ejaculated more than once. It usually just means that the urethra is irritated by the force of those ejaculations. It also leads to the desire to urinate.

Ive been having a burning sensation while peeing for the last 3-4 days, and I also noticed some white discharge from my urethra. Could this be a sign of an infection or something else? What could be causing this?

Yes you can have it no problem

It's important to address these concerns with a balanced and realistic perspective. I recommend speaking directly with a healthcare professional, such as a urologist, who can provide accurate information and guidance on your situation. Concerns about body image and sexual health are common, and a doctor can help you address both physical and psychological aspects with personalized advice. Additionally, it's normal to have concerns about habits like masturbation, but it's essential to approach this in a healthy way. They can also suggest exercises, nutrition, and lifestyle changes that are suitable for your overall well-being.

Common adverse effects of contraceptive pills include nausea, breast tenderness, mood changes, weight gain, and increased risk of blood clots, stroke, and high blood pressure; to confirm pregnancy, a home pregnancy test (HPT) can detect hCG hormone levels 7-10 days after conception, with accuracy increasing 2-3 days after a missed period, while a blood test can detect pregnancy 6-8 days after conception.

I have a cracked foreskin due to a fungal infection. I've been using Betamil GM ointment but haven't seen any improvement. Can you recommend the best treatment for it?

It seems like the fungal infection might require a more targeted treatment. I recommend consulting a doctor for an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole or Miconazole, and potentially an oral antifungal if the infection is persistent. In the meantime, keep the area dry and avoid any irritation.

Hi doctor, Ive been experiencing severe pain at the glans of my penis when I start and finish urinating. Theres no pain when Im not urinating, but when I do, the pain starts at the beginning of urination and fades during the flow. At the end of urination, its unbearable, almost making me stop peeing. Afterward, my urine drips out in small drops, and the pain is intense. A week ago, I was treated for a UTI with Norflex, Cyclopam, and Citralka syrup, which helped and I felt fine. But now the pain is back, and it seems like its in the glans, although it could be coming from the urethra. Ive been drinking plenty of water, but the pain isnt going away. What could be going on?

Im a 30-year-old male and Im considering getting a circumcision. Can you advise me on whether laser circumcision or the normal method is better? Also, could you recommend a good specialist in Navi Mumbai?

For a 30-year-old male, both laser and conventional circumcision methods are available.Laser CircumcisionThis method is preferred for its quicker recovery time and minimal bleeding . The procedure is more precise, reducing the risk of complications.

Yes, HIV transmission is possible through oral sex, although the risk is considered lower compared to vaginal or anal sex; according to the CDC, the risk of HIV transmission through oral sex is estimated to be between 0-3% per act, with receptive oral sex (performing oral sex) posing a higher risk than insertive oral sex (receiving oral sex); other possible ways of STD transmission include vaginal/anal sex, sharing needles, blood transfusions, and mother-to-child transmission during pregnancy/birth.

I recently did a urine test, and the results showed 2-3 RBCs per high power field (HPF). After that, I had an ultrasound and X-ray KUB, and both came back normal. Ive been having a burning sensation while urinating, and I started taking homeopathic medicine. After a month, the symptoms improved, but I did another urine test and the RBC count was still 2-3 HPF. Im really worried about this and not sure whats going on. Should I be concerned or is this something that will go away on its own?

The presence of red blood cells (RBC) in the urine can indicate various conditions such as urinary tract infection, kidney stones, or inflammation in the urinary tract. Since your ultrasound and X-Ray KUB results were normal, it's important to address the burning sensation in your urine. I recommend taking a course of antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin 500mg twice daily for 7-10 days to treat any possible urinary tract infection that may be causing the symptoms. Additionally, you can take Phenazopyridine 200mg three times a day for 2 days to help relieve the burning sensation. It's also important to stay well-hydrated and avoid irritants such as caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods. If the symptoms persist or worsen, further evaluation by a urologist may be necessary.

I got a cut on the skin of my penis, I think it's on the foreskin. It bleeds when I have sex, but other than that, it seems fine. What should I do about this?

You can also take over-the-counter pain relievers like Tylenol for any discomfort. If the bleeding continues or if you notice signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, or pus, please see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

I recently had sex twice in the same day with my fiance, and I ejaculated very quickly both times. Even when I masturbate, I ejaculate very soon. What could be going on, and what treatment should I consider? Which type of doctor should I consult for this?

Im 24, and my penis size is less than 2cm when it's flaccid, and 11cm when erect. Is this a problem? Also, when I masturbate, I ejaculate within a minute. I do this twice a week. Is that normal or something I should be worried about?

Penis size can vary among individuals and what you have described is within the normal range. There is no need to be concerned about the size difference. Ejaculating quickly during masturbation is a common issue known as premature ejaculation. To help with this issue, you can try using medications like Dapoxetine. Practicing techniques like the start-stop method or the squeeze technique may also be helpful.

I've been masturbating daily for a while now, and Im wondering if it could be affecting my health in any way. Could it have any side effects or cause problems in the long run?

Masturbation is a normal and healthy sexual activity. It does not cause any physical harm or have any long-term side effects. However, excessive masturbation can lead to temporary genital irritation. It is important to maintain a balance and listen to your body's needs. If you experience any discomfort, you can use over-the-counter creams like Calamine lotion to soothe the irritation.

Im having problems with low sperm count and poor sperm quality. What can I do to improve this?

It is always best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

Ive been masturbating about twice a week for the past 4 years, and now Im experiencing pain in my left testicle. What should I do about it?

Testicle pain can have various causes, including infections or inflammation. In your case, it is important to rule out any underlying infection. I recommend taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with the pain and inflammation. Additionally, you should consider using a scrotal support to alleviate discomfort. It is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment, as you may need antibiotics if there is an infection present.

Hi doctor, Ive been experiencing some tingling in my penile nerves, and theres no trauma or abnormal findings in my blood reports. Im wondering if it could be related to frequent or intense masturbation. Also, I feel a burning sensation at the tip of my penis after urinating, but only before I go. I tend to watch porn a lot before this happens. Can this heal on its own, or is there something specific I should do? Im feeling really depressed about it and could really use some guidance. The doctor prescribed me tricyclic antidepressants for 3 months, but Ive only taken them for 2 months. Can these medications help with the symptoms Im experiencing?

It is possible that the tingling sensation in your penile nerves, along with the burning sensation at the tip of the penis before urination, could be related to nerve irritation or inflammation. This could be aggravated by frequent or vigorous masturbation. To help with these symptoms, you can try taking Vitamin B complex supplements, which can support nerve health. Additionally, you can apply a topical numbing cream containing lidocaine to the tip of the penis to help with the burning sensation. As for the tricyclic antidepressants you were prescribed, they can sometimes be used to help manage nerve-related pain. However, it is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and duration of treatment. Since you have only taken the medication for 2 months out of the recommended 3 months, it may be beneficial to complete the full course of treatment as prescribed. It is also important to practice good genital hygiene, avoid any activities that worsen your symptoms, and give your body time to heal naturally. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management

Masturbation does not decrease zinc or testosterone levels significantly. It is a normal and healthy activity.

If you have concerns about your testosterone levels, you can consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

Towards the end of urination, I feel a weird sensation in my lower abdomen, though its not painful. I dont think its an STD since Im a virgin, but Im still concerned. What could be causing this sensation?

This could be a sign of urinary tract irritation or inflammation. I recommend taking a course of an over-the-counter medication called Phenazopyridine (brand name Pyridium) to help relieve the discomfort and burning sensation during urination. Additionally, you may also consider taking a medication like Ibuprofen (brand name Advil) to help reduce any inflammation in the urinary tract.

Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. To help improve the strength of your erections and prolong intercourse, you can try taking medications like sildenafil or tadalafil. These medications help increase blood flow to the penis, resulting in stronger and longer-lasting erections.

The best treatment for varicocele with low sperm count and motility is typically surgical repair of the varicocele, known as varicocelectomy. This procedure can improve sperm count and motility by reducing testicular temperature and improving blood flow to the testes. Medication options include pain relief medications such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. However, for low sperm count and motility, medications like Clomiphene or Letrozole can be prescribed to help increase sperm production. Additionally, antioxidants like Coenzyme Q10 or Vitamin E may also be recommended to improve sperm quality. It is important to consult with a urologist to determine the most suitable treatment option for your specific case.

Im 29 years old and have concerns about my penis size and performance. I feel that its smaller than Id like, and Im experiencing difficulty with maintaining hardness during sex. Also, I tend to discharge very quickly. Are there any treatments or exercises that can help with size and performance issues? What do you suggest?

For increasing penis size and improving hardness, you can consider taking Viagra (Sildenafil) 50mg before sexual activity. For premature ejaculation, you can try Dapoxetine 30mg. Both medications can help improve your sexual performance. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe for you.

Ive been experiencing pain at the head of my penis when I touch it, and sometimes it burns while I pee. What could be causing this? Can I still have sex while dealing with this condition?

Symptoms could indicate a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted infection. It is important to get evaluated by a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment. For the pain and burning sensation, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen. However, it is important to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and prescription of antibiotics if needed. Regarding having sex with these symptoms, it is advisable to avoid sexual activity until you have been evaluated and treated to prevent spreading any potential infection to your partner.

I have a curved penis (it curves toward the left) and its been making me feel really embarrassed. I want to straighten it, but Im not sure what to do. Are there any exercises or specific ways to masturbate that could help with straightening it?

To address this issue, you can try performing penile stretching exercises to help straighten your penis. One common exercise is the penile traction method, where you gently stretch your penis in the opposite direction of the curve for a few minutes each day. Additionally, using a penile traction device may also help in straightening your penis over time. It's important to be patient and consistent with these exercises for them to be effective. Remember to be gentle and not forceful to avoid any injuries.

Ive been experiencing a sharp, extreme pain in my clitoral area and lower abdomen every time I urinate. It feels like its about to explode for a minute, and the pain is very intense but then subsides after a few minutes. I still feel mild pain in my abdomen even after Im done urinating. Im really worried about what could be causing this. Can you help me understand what might be going on?

This could be a sign of a urinary tract infection (UTI). I recommend taking an antibiotic such as Ciprofloxacin. Additionally, you can take Phenazopyridine, to help relieve the pain and discomfort while urinating. Make sure to drink plenty of water to help flush out the bacteria causing the infection. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Ive been dealing with a chronic issue of tender and cracked foreskin on my penis. It seems to heal and then crack again regularly. Could you suggest what might be causing this and how I can treat it effectively?

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.

Ive been feeling like my testicles are hot most of the time, especially when Im sitting. Theres no itching or redness, but its been a constant issue. Ive been married for about 2.5 months now. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it normal?

sounds like you may be experiencing some discomfort in your testicles. This could be due to a variety of reasons, such as increased blood flow, inflammation, or infection. Since you mentioned no itching or redness, it is less likely to be a fungal infection. Additionally, wearing loose-fitting underwear and avoiding prolonged sitting may also help alleviate the symptoms. If the discomfort persists or worsens, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

Ive noticed that my sperm discharges quickly and isnt very strong on the bottom side. I masturbate about twice a week, and Im worried this might be affecting me. Is this normal or should I be concerned?

A few days ago, I was treated for burning during urination and took antibiotics like Ceftum and Cefixime, but they havent worked. Now Im also experiencing pain in my lower abdomen and back. What could be causing this, and what should I do next?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted infection. I recommend you start taking a combination of antibiotics such as "Doxycycline" along with "Metronidazole" under the guidance of a specialist. Additionally, you can take "Ibuprofen" 400mg three times a day for pain relief. Make sure to drink plenty of water to help flush out the infection. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

It's common to have concerns about sexual health, but when it comes to pregnancy, the depth of penetration isnt the key factor. Pregnancy can occur with any level of vaginal penetration as long as sperm comes in contact with the cervix during ejaculation. Also, if you're dealing with issues like erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation, those are also worth discussing with a healthcare professional. They can help you understand the underlying causes and suggest appropriate treatment options.

A penetration of at least 4-6 inches is generally considered sufficient for sperm to reach the cervix. I have some sexual problems with penis erection and premature ejaculation. For erectile dysfunction, you can try using Viagra (Sildenafil). For premature ejaculation, you can try using Priligy (Dapoxetine). Make sure to consult a specialist before starting any new medication.

Is masturbation good or bad for health? If someone masturbates frequently for many days, can it be harmful?

What could be causing this, and what else should I do?

Tingling in the penile area, burning sensation at the tip of the penis after urination, and pain at the base of the penis could be indicative of a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted infection. Since you have already tried antidepressants without complete relief, I recommend consulting a doctor for a thorough evaluation and possible prescription of antibiotics. In the meantime, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like acetaminophen for the pain.

If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Hi, my penis head is very sensitive to touch, and it's causing premature ejaculation. Could you suggest any treatments to help reduce this sensitivity and overcome this issue?

One treatment option you can try is using a topical anesthetic cream containing lidocaine. You can apply a small amount of cream to the sensitive area about 10-15 minutes before sexual activity. This can help reduce the sensitivity and delay ejaculation. One brand you can look for is Stud 100, and the recommended dosage is to apply a small pea-sized amount as needed. Remember to wash it off before intercourse to prevent transfer to your partner.

Hi Doctor,Last night after masturbating, I noticed that the top part of the backside of my penis got swollen. Its a bit concerning and Im not sure what caused it. What should I do to address this? Should I be worried, or is this something that will go away on its own?

Could be due to irritation or inflammation. I recommend using an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to reduce the swelling and discomfort. Apply a thin layer of hydrocortisone cream to the affected area twice a day for about a week. If the swelling does not improve or if you experience any pain, fever, or discharge, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

Ive been experiencing this strange tingling sensation in my urethra, but theres no UTI or any other issues. I dont have any pain while urinating, and I havent noticed any prostate problems. The tingling is really uncomfortable, especially when Im trying to sleep, and it makes me feel fidgety. It eventually goes away on its own, but its been bothering me. Could this be urethral syndrome or something related to nerves? Is there any treatment or medicine that could help with this?

Urethral irritation usually presents in this way. To help alleviate the tingling sensation, you can try taking Flavoxate (brand name Urispas) 200 mg tablets.

Additionally, you can take Ibuprofen as needed for pain and inflammation. Make sure to rest, wear supportive underwear, and apply ice packs to the area to help with swelling and discomfort. If your symptoms worsen or do not improve, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I use a condom every day at night when I masturbate, and it gives me a lot of pleasure. But Im worried if this could cause any problems in the future. Also, Ive been wondering if theres any way to enlarge my penis size. Could you help me understand this better?

Using a condom during masturbation is a safe practice and should not cause any problems in the future. If you are looking to enlarge your penis size, there are no medications or methods that have been scientifically proven to be effective. It is important to remember that penis size is determined by genetics and cannot be significantly altered. If you have concerns about your penis size, it may be helpful to speak with a healthcare provider for further guidance.

I've been having a lot of pain in my right testicle after masturbation. I dont overdo it, I usually masturbate once or twice a week. I also struggle with premature ejaculation. Can you recommend some natural remedies for this?

You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a cold pack to the area may help reduce inflammation and pain. Make sure to rest and avoid any activities that worsen the pain. For premature ejaculation, you can try natural remedies such as behavioral techniques (such as the start-stop technique or the squeeze technique), pelvic floor exercises (Kegel exercises), and certain herbs like ashwagandha or ginseng. You can also consider using lidocaine sprays or condoms to reduce sensitivity. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Hi doctor, Ive been masturbating quite frequently, and Ive noticed that my penis has become smaller. When its not erect, it seems much smaller than before. Is there anything I can do to get it back to its normal size? Please help me with this concern.

Try using a topical cream containing Alprostadil. Apply a pea-sized amount of Alprostadil cream directly to the penis twice daily. Additionally, you can take Tadalafil tablets once daily at a dose of 5mg. These medications can help improve blood flow to the penis and promote natural size restoration. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.

I've noticed that after masturbation, I get a vague pain or discomfort in my right testicle. I usually masturbate once a day, and sometimes rarely twice. I'm starting to wonder if its because of too much masturbation, but Im not sure if this is something serious. What could be causing this and how can I prevent it?

Experiencing vague pain or discomfort in the right testicle can be a concerning symptom. It is possible that excessive masturbation may be contributing to this issue. To prevent further discomfort, you can try reducing the frequency of masturbation and ensuring proper lubrication during the act. Additionally, wearing supportive underwear and avoiding activities that put pressure on the testicles may help alleviate the discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Hi doctor, Im facing an issue with my foreskin. Its really tight and I cant pull it back or move it at all. The inside of my penis is not visible, and Ive noticed that people my age can easily pull their foreskin back, with the top of their penis visible. Im worried because Ive heard that a tight foreskin could cause pain and bleeding during sex. What should I do?

To address this issue, you can try using a topical steroid cream such as Betamethasone 0.05% cream. Apply a small amount of the cream to the tight part of the foreskin twice a day for about 4-6 weeks. This can help to reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin. In severe cases where conservative measures do not work, a circumcision may be recommended by a healthcare professional. This is a minor surgical procedure where the foreskin is removed. However, it is important to consult with a doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific situation.

Hi doctor, Ive been masturbating since I was 16 and now Im 29, but recently Ive started feeling pain in my knee joints, the right side of my back, and lower waist after masturbating. The pain lasts for 2 or 3 days and then goes away on its own. Im getting married soon and Im worried if this could affect my married life. Can you tell me what might be causing this?

Could be due to muscle strain and tension caused by the physical exertion involved in the act. To help alleviate the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen. Additionally, you may benefit from applying a topical pain relief gel or cream to the affected areas. As for your concerns about this impacting your marriage life, it is unlikely to be a significant issue as long as you take steps to address the pain and discomfort you are experiencing. It is important to communicate openly with your partner about any discomfort you may be feeling and to explore different sexual positions or activities that are more comfortable for you. Remember to stay hydrated, practice good posture, and consider incorporating stretching exercises into your routine to help prevent muscle strain. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Ive noticed that the head of my penis is dry and its becoming difficult to pull the skin back, although I can still roll it down easily. The ring around my penis is getting red and patchy. Can you suggest what might be causing this and how I can treat it?

Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, and avoiding irritants such as harsh soaps or perfumed products, can help with healing. If symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Hi, Ive been dealing with a few health issues and Im worried they might be connected. Ive had a habit of over-masturbation, and now Im experiencing lower back pain, eye strain, irregular sleep patterns, hair loss, and a sensitive scalp with small boils and slight pain. Theres also this whitish substance in my armpit. My groin and pelvic area feel cramped too. While my erections seem normal, I havent been getting morning erections, and I dont feel the same level of orgasm as before during masturbation. Could you help me understand whats going on and what I should do?

You may be experiencing symptoms related to over masturbation. To address these issues, I recommend the following: 1. Lower back pain and strain in eyes: You can take acetaminophen for pain relief and use lubricating eye drops for eye strain. 2. Abnormal sleep patterns: Consider practicing good sleep hygiene and relaxation techniques before bed. 3. Whitish substance in armpit and scalp, sensitive scalp, small boils on scalp: Use an antifungal shampoo like Ketoconazole for scalp issues and an antifungal cream for armpit concerns. 4. Hair fall: Use minoxidil solution on the scalp to promote hair growth. 5. Groin and pelvic cramps: You can try over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen for relief. 6. Erectile issues and lack of morning erections: Consider taking sildenafil for erectile dysfunction. 7. Inability to feel orgasm like before: You may benefit from counseling or therapy to address any psychological factors contributing to this issue. Make sure to follow the recommended dosages for each medication and consult with a healthcare provider if you have any concerns.

I'm a 23-year-old guy and I've been experiencing a strange sensation in my left testicle. It feels like it's vibrating, and sometimes my right testicle also feels the same. This started the morning after I masturbated the previous night. My left testicle also feels softer compared to the right one. Occasionally, my penis shakes as well. Sometimes both testicles feel normal, but this has been happening for the last 4 days. Could this be something to be concerned about?

Sounds like you may be experiencing some testicular discomfort and changes in sensation. These symptoms could be due to various reasons such as muscle spasms, nerve irritation, or even underlying medical conditions. I recommend you to take Ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours for pain relief and inflammation. Additionally, you can apply a cold pack to the affected area to help reduce any swelling or discomfort. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I masturbated last evening and about 30 minutes later, I noticed blood at the head of my penis. I urinated and washed it, but it happened two more times after urination. By the morning, everything seemed normal with no blood in my urine. Ive already had an ultrasound and urine test, and the results were normal, with only 8-10 red blood cells detected in my urine. Today, when my penis got erect, I felt a very brief pain in the middle of my penis for about 1-2 seconds. Then blood appeared again, and after 2-3 urinations, everything went back to normal with no pain or blood. Ive been taking Leon-500 once a day.Im worried that there may be some kind of blockage or internal injury from masturbation. Can you help me understand whats going on and what I should do?

you may be experiencing some trauma or injury to your penis during masturbation. The presence of blood in the urine and pain during erection could be indicative of a urethral injury or inflammation. Since you have already taken Leon-500, which contains Levofloxacin, an antibiotic, it is important to continue taking it as prescribed to prevent any infection. I recommend you also take an anti-inflammatory medication like Ibuprofen to help reduce any inflammation and pain in the area. Additionally, you can apply a topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to the affected area to prevent infection. Make sure to drink plenty of water to help flush out your system and avoid any activities that may further irritate or injure the area. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Ive noticed small white lumps coming out with my semen when I ejaculate after masturbation. Im not sure what this could be, and its making me a bit worried. Can anyone help explain what might be going on?

These small lumps you are noticing in your semen could be due to a few different reasons. One possibility is that they are sperm clumps, which can be normal and not a cause for concern. However, if these lumps are accompanied by pain, swelling, or changes in your semen consistency, it could be a sign of an underlying issue such as an infection or inflammation of the prostate or seminal vesicles. I recommend you to consult a doctor for further evaluation and appropriate management.

Im a 21-year-old male, weighing 74 kg and 5.4ft tall, and Im really concerned about my penis size. Its around 5.3 to 5.4 inches, and Im not satisfied with it. I really want to know if theres any way to increase it. What are my options, and what would be the best approach to 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.

I'm married, but for the past month, I've been struggling with erectile issues. Whenever I try to have intercourse with my wife, my erection isn't firm enough, and my penis tends to bend. This is making it difficult to satisfy her, and I'm really worried about it. Could this be a temporary problem, or is there something more serious going on?

You may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. I recommend you try using Viagra (Sildenafil) 50mg to 100mg about 1 hour before sexual activity. This medication can help improve blood flow to the penis and support a stronger erection. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

Hi, I'm 24 years old and I'm concerned about the size of my penis. When it's not erect, it's less than 2 inches. I'm wondering if there's any way to increase its size. Also, could you tell me what the average size of a penis is both when it's erect and when it's not?

The average size of a flaccid penis is typically around 3.5 inches to 3.9 inches, while the average size of an erect penis is around 5.1 to 5.7 inches. It's important to note that penis size can vary and is not necessarily an indicator of sexual function or satisfaction. There are some medications available that may help with erectile dysfunction and potentially improve blood flow to the penis, leading to firmer erections.

These symptoms may indicate an underlying infection or inflammation. I recommend you take an over-the-counter pain reliever like acetaminophen to help with the pain and inflammation. Additionally, you should apply a topical antibiotic cream like Neosporin on the burned area of your penis to prevent infection. It is important to drink plenty of water to help with urination and flush out any potential infection.
