It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for about 2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to help with the healing process. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

Question

I've been masturbating about two or three times a week, and I'm worried if this could lead to impotency. I feel like my penis isn't as big as it was when I was 18, especially when it's flaccid. I can see nerves on it and also on the back of my hands. Does this mean Im getting weaker or is it normal? Am I doing it too often? Could this increase my risk of diabetes, because my mom has it?

Question

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?

Question

I'm a 17-year-old guy and I'm really worried about a few things. I've got a pretty small penis, like about 3 inches, and I've been masturbating every day for the past three years. I just can't seem to stop. I'm also dealing with premature ejaculation, which happens really fast, and there are wrinkles on my penis. Is there any way to increase penis size or help with these issues?
