The head of my penis is super sensitive and hurts when I touch it, especially near where the secretion comes out. There's also a vein attached to the head that makes it impossible to pull back the foreskin, so I'm scheduled for surgery. I'm wondering if there's any way to reduce the sensitivity of the penis head after the procedure

It sounds like you're experiencing phimosis and possibly balanitis, which can cause sensitivity and pain on the head of the penis. Since you're scheduled for surgery, it's good to discuss potential ways to manage sensitivity after the procedure with your doctor. Here's some general information that might be helpful:

View allI'm a bit worried about my left testicle because it hangs much lower than the right one and there's a burning sensation. I've read about bell clapper deformity and how it might lead to testicular torsion. Also, I've been diagnosed with bilateral grade 1 varicocele. I'm wondering if I might need surgery for this or if it can be managed with medicine. Could you help clarify this for me?

I was diagnosed with grade 2 varicocele back in 2018 and have been using a supporter regularly since then. Some days I get slight pain in my scrotum, maybe once a month should I consider surgery or is there another way to manage this?
Grade 2 varicocele can be managed conservatively unless pain or infertility occurs—then surgery is advised.

I'm kind of worried about my foreskin. It's become swollen and there are some cut-like marks on it. It's been like this for about a month now. Its difficult to move the foreskin back and there's a burning sensation when I touch the area. Could you suggest some medicine or what I should do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing balanitis, which is inflammation of the foreskin. I recommend using an antifungal and anti-inflammatory cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like Ibuprofen 400mg to help with the burning sensation. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation. If your symptoms do not improve or worsen, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
