Hey, I'm a bit concerned because after masturbating, my foreskin isn't going back up and it's a little swollen underneath. There's no pain, but it's making me a bit anxious. Any advice on what I should do?

It sounds like you might be experiencing temporary swelling or tightness in the foreskin after masturbation, which can happen occasionally. If there's no pain or severe discomfort, it should improve on its own. However, if it persists or causes more concern, it's a good idea to consult a healthcare provider for reassurance.

View allI'm from Dibrugarh and think I might have a short frenulum. I can retract my foreskin but it doesn't feel quite normal. Sex isn't painful or anything, but after reading up online, I'm wondering if frenuloplasty could make things more comfortable. Should I consider surgery or is it fine as long as it's not causing issues?

I'm really worried about this issue I've been having. It seems like whenever I think about or even just see anything related to lovemaking, there's a sticky, watery fluid that comes out of my penis. Even when I talk to my girlfriend, I notice it happening. I haven't gotten married yet, and this problem is honestly scaring me a bit. Is there any treatment for dhatu rog and premature ejaculation that you could suggest?
Your symptoms suggest a possible condition known as involuntary semen leakage or seminal emission, often associated with dhatu rog; to address this, consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner or a sexologist for personalized guidance; in the meantime, try practicing stress-reducing techniques like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises to help manage anxiety and emotional arousal; also, consider herbal remedies like Ashwagandha, Shilajit, or Kapikacchu, which may help improve semen quality and reduce leakage, but always consult a healthcare professional before adding new supplements to your regimen.

my son had hypospadias surgery and we've been in the hospital for 8 days now today i noticed a little wetness on the outer dressing could this cause any issues
A small amount of wetness on the outer dressing after hypospadias surgery is usually normal, but it's important to monitor for any signs of infection or excessive bleeding. If the wetness is limited and not accompanied by other concerning symptoms, it might just be residual fluid or a small amount of bleeding, which is expected in the first few days after surgery. However, if the wetness is excessive, there's a foul odor, or if your son has a fever, redness, or increased pain around the incision, it could indicate an infection and you should contact his healthcare provider immediately.
