I've been applying olive oil to my penis for about a week now, and I'm wondering if it's safe to use it on the glans too. Can using olive oil daily on my sensitive glans help with the sensitivity issue I'm experiencing?

Using olive oil on the glans is generally safe, but it wont specifically reduce sensitivity. Sensitivity could be due to various causes, like inflammation, irritation, or medical conditions. Its best to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and tailored advice.

Question

I recently got married and whenever I try to have sex with my wife, the skin on my penis hurts because it hasn't separated properly. I don't want to remove all the skin, just the top part that's attached to the penis. What would be the cost of that? What should I do, and if there's surgery required, how much would it cost?
