I'm 31 and just realized I have a tight foreskin. I'm considering circumcision but wondering if it's safe at my age and what the actual benefits are. Who should I talk to about this procedure?

Circumcision at 31 to address a tight foreskin (phimosis) is generally safe and can be done for both medical and personal reasons. A urologist is the best healthcare professional to consult about this procedure

Question

I've been wondering and I'm a bit worried because when I was around 16, I used to masturbate a lot and applied pressure on my penis against the bed. Now, my outer skin has kind of opened up, and the inner skin is exposed. I'm concerned if this could cause any issues in the future. Could you give me some advice on whether this might be a problem?

Question

I'm feeling really weak and my bones just feel fragile. This has been going on for about 8 months now, and lately, I've noticed tremors in my hands. I can hardly hold my phone without my hands starting to ache. I've struggled with over-masturbation for nearly 78 years and every time I do it, I feel like it just makes everything worse. I've tried to stop, but nightfall seems to exacerbate things. I've gone ahead and gotten a bunch of tests done like checking my Vitamin D, Calcium, Uric Acid, and CRP, and they all came back normal. I'm pretty sure this is all linked to the masturbation problem. Could you help me figure out what's going on and suggest some solutions? I'm really worried and would appreciate your guidance.

Question

My dad was recently diagnosed with a very enlarged prostate along with a UTI and high creatinine levels, probably because of the prostate issue. He's been struggling with frequent urination, especially at night, and the doctor recommended surgery. Can you suggest good hospitals and urologist surgeons in Delhi for prostate surgery?
