I'm a bit concerned about my penis. It's been slightly curved since I was young, and when it's not erect, it seems really small. When it is erect, it's about 4.5 inches. Plus, my foreskin doesn't really pull back much when I'm hard, and I'm not sure if that's normal. Can you give me some advice on whether this is something to worry about?

It's completely normal for some men to have a slight curvature in their penis, and it can vary in size when flaccid or erect. The difficulty pulling back your foreskin when erect could indicate a condition called phimosis, which is treatable. I recommend consulting a urologist for a proper evaluation and advice on potential treatment options.

Question

I've been having this really bad pain in the glans of my penis, right when I start and finish urinating. It's like normal when I'm just going about my day, no pain or anything, but as soon as I pee, it's unbearableit makes me stop mid-flow. The pain kind of eases up during the flow but as it slows down to just drops at the end, that's when it hits me hard. It's honestly the worst pain I've felt. I had a UTI not too long ago and took some meds like Norflex, Cyclopam, and Citralka syrup, and it seemed like I was okay for a bit. Could this be related, or is it something different? I've been drinking a ton of water, but its not helping. Also, I'm not quite sure if it's truly in the glans or maybe through the urethra, but it sure feels like it's around there. Any idea what might be going on?

Question

I'm a 24-year-old and I've been using Viagra to have better sex. I'm worried because it's become a habit, and over the past year, my penis isn't getting as erect as it used to. It would get hard about 2 to 3 times a day before, but now it doesn't. Even during sex, it gets hard but goes soft really quickly. I'm wondering if this is happening because of the Viagra, and Id really like some advice on what I should do.

Question

I've been dealing with overmasturbation for about 23 years, sometimes up to 12 times a day. In the past 12 months, I've been feeling really weak and facing issues with erections, along with other side effects. I'm turning 19 years old in June. Is there a way to permanently treat this? Can I fully recover and enjoy a healthy sexual life in the future? Please help me out here.
