  1. Circumcision and Premature Ejaculation:

    • Circumcision is not a reliable or recommended treatment for premature ejaculation (PE).
    • PE involves ejaculating sooner than desired and can have complex causes, including psychological and medical factors.
  2. Understanding Circumcision:

    • It involves the surgical removal of the foreskin, often for medical, cultural, or religious reasons.
    • Scientific evidence does not support it as a cure for PE.
  3. Effective Treatments for PE:

    • Behavioral techniques and counseling.
    • Topical anesthetics and medications prescribed by a healthcare professional.
  4. Recommendation:

    • Consult a urologist or sexual health specialist for personalized advice and treatment options. Avoid considering circumcision solely as a solution for PE without professional guidance.

I've been having this dull pinch sensation in my penis whenever I'm straining, stressing, or even just sitting or standing. It first showed up during a regular masturbatory sessionnothing too rough. It's been hanging around for the last several weeks, and now I've noticed a purple spot on the glans corona, right where I feel the pinch. It kind of looks like a bruise. Just recently, the sensation seems to be happening less often and isn't as intense. What could be going on?

Wash the wound*: Immediately wash the bite area with soap and water. 2. *Seek medical attention*: Consult a doctor for post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and wound care. *Foods to Avoid* To minimize the risk of infection and promote healing: 1. *Spicy food*: Avoid spicy food, as it can irritate the wound. 2. *Oily food*: Oily food can slow down the healing process. 3. *Sour food*: Sour food can increase the risk of infection. 4. *High-sodium food*: High-sodium food can increase swelling and delay healing. 5. *Raw meat and seafood*: Raw meat and seafood can increase the risk of infection. 6. *Unpasteurized dairy*: Unpasteurized dairy products can contain harmful bacteria. *Foods to Eat* Focus on nutrient-rich foods that promote healing: 1. *Leafy greens*: Leafy greens like spinach, kale, and collard greens are rich in vitamins and minerals. 2. *Citrus fruits*: Citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruits, and lemons are high in vitamin C, which promotes healing. 3. *Berries*: Berries like blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries are rich in antioxidants and vitamins. 4. *Nuts and seeds*: Nuts and seeds like almonds, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds are rich in healthy fats and protein. 5. *Whole grains*: Whole grains like brown rice, quinoa, and whole-wheat bread provide essential fiber and nutrients. Remember to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water and other fluids.

My dad had prostate surgery 3 years ago but still has urinary retention issues and has been dealing with prostate problems for like 20 years. The doctor just put in a urine drainage bag. Is this normal after so many years of prostate issues or should we be worried about something else going on?

Yes, long-standing prostate issues can lead to bladder damage and retention even after surgery. A urologist may assess for bladder dysfunction or urethral narrowing with urodynamic studies.
