I have phimosis and I'm not sure if surgery is necessary or if it can be treated with medicines. If medicines can help, could you let me know which ones might work? Also, how do I know if I need surgery for this?

For the past three years, I've been feeling discomfort in my urinary passage, and over the last year, it's gotten worse. My urine flow has become narrow, especially during ejaculation sometimes it doesn't even come out freely. There's no pain or infection, but doctors did an RGU test and diagnosed it as urethral stricture, recommending surgery. I heard Ayurveda has a treatment called Uttarbasti could this help my condition? If so, can you suggest a good Ayurveda doctor?

Ayurvedic Uttarbasti may support urethral health,but urethral stricture often requires dilatation or urethroplasty.Surgeon input is essential.
