View allI have stage 1 phimosis where I can pull back my foreskin when flaccid but not when erect. Intercourse isn't an issue, but I'm unsure if I need treatment. Some suggest surgery while others recommend coconut oil and exercises. What's the best approach for this should I treat it or leave it alone?
Patient is reffered to a surgeon for further management.

Was it normal for my urine to turn red once and then go back to its usual color? Should I be concerned about this or is it nothing to worry about?
No need to worry,that could be due to colour in food that you have had also ,consume plenty of water and stay hydrated you will be fine.

I'm really worried about this S aureus balanitis thing. I have these bowel issues and some impetigo on my foreskin, and it's been treated but I'm still in a lot of pain all over my body. Can you tell me if this is normal or if there's anything else I should be doing?
You can use a combination of topical mupirocin ointment applied to the affected area three times daily and oral antibiotics such as cephalexin 500mg four times a day for 7-10 days. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry. For impetigo on the foreskin, you can also use mupirocin ointment. For body pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours as needed for pain. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest.
