Why is the head of my penis so dry? I'm having trouble pulling the back skin upwards after rolling it down, though that part is easy. Plus, the ring of my penis is turning more red and patchy. What's going on with that?

Use an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream twice a day on the affected area for 1-2 weeks. 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.

View allI've noticed that my penis has been swollen for the past couple of days, and it's really itchy with the skin looking red on the inside. The head is also pretty swollen. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?
This could be a sign of a fungal infection such as balanitis. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for about 1-2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm newly married, just about two weeks ago, and I've been having some issues when trying to have intercourse. My erection doesn't seem to last. When my penis gets hard and I attempt to enter the vagina, it suddenly loses the erection. Even if I do manage to get it up again, the same thing keeps happening. It's really depressing and making me anxious. Do you think this is a permanent issue? Also, my penis is around 11 centimeters longis that adequate for sex? Is there a cure for these erection problems, or is there something I should be doing differently?
it will be cure

A borderline varicocele usually falls under a Grade 2 or 3 on the varicocele grading system. Whether or not surgery is needed depends on various factors, including the specific grade, presence of symptoms like pain, and impact on fertility.
