I've noticed this tiny hard growth on my foreskin, about the size of a grain of sand. It's not itchy or burning or anything, but I'm a bit worried about what it could be. Any ideas on what this might be or if I should get it checked out?

This could potentially be a condition called Fordyce spots, which are small, raised, pale red, yellow-white, or skin-colored bumps that can appear on the shaft of the penis or the foreskin. They are usually harmless and do not require treatment. However, it is important to have it properly diagnosed by a healthcare provider to rule out any other possible conditions.

Question

I'm a 30-year-old guy and I've been having a frequent nightfall problem. It happens about 2 to 3 times a week, around 10 times a month. Can you suggest any treatment or advice for dealing with this issue?

Question

Sure, I've been feeling a bit concerned about my sex life recently. You see, I've been taking Lithium and Thyroid medication for years, and I'm wondering if my issues with ED and the anxiety that comes with it are linked to the meds or maybe something like low testosterone levels? I have bipolar disorder, and I'm generally quite active sexually, even though work and having a young child have put sex lower on the list. Both my spouse and I miss the frequency and intensity we used to have when we first got married, and it's becoming a point of tension. Any advice on how to improve things?
