I'm experiencing a sharp pain at the tip of my penis and some irritation on the foreskin. Can you recommend any general painkillers I can use until I 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.

Question

I'm a 26-year-old guy, and I'm really concerned about something that's been happening with me. Whenever I think about anything sexual or watch a sexy movie, this clear gel-like liquid comes out of my penis. I'm curious about what exactly this is and how I can stop it. Also, I've noticed that if I get aroused at night or have a sexual dream, I end up ejaculating without realizing it. Could you give me some advice on what's going on?

Question

I've noticed some white skin on the tip of my penis, and it's really sensitive to touch. The rest of the skin feels normal, almost like there's a difference I can't explain. What could this be, and should I be worried about it?

Question

I've been getting this weird tingling and shooting pain in my penis, especially after a long erection, but sometimes even without one. Could this be connected to bloating somehow? It's really concerning me.
