A prostate volume of 374251 mm (374.251 ml) and a weight of 42.45 g at age 67 is significantly larger than a normal prostate, which typically weighs between 20-25 grams. While some enlargement is normal with age, this size may require medical intervention. Medications or surgery may be necessary, depending on the severity of symptoms and other medical factors

Question

My foreskin is really tight and sealed, and the tip stays very narrow and closed no matter what. From what I've read online, it sounds like phimosis. I don't have any pain when peeing though. Who should I see about this and what's the usual treatment? Would I need surgery right away?

Question

I'm a bit worried about something that happened after my circumcision about 45 days ago. The skin on my penis glans has become really dry, and I notice peeling and flaking, especially in the mornings when I wake up. It seems to get better after I take a bath. Is this something I should be concerned about, or does it just happen sometimes?

Question

I've been struggling with balanitis for the past couple of months. I tried using CandidB cream, but it only gives me temporary relief. Is there something else I should be doing or any long-term treatment options that could help?
