A study was done on it according to it the average length of a flaccid penis was 9.16 cm, whereas the average lengths of a flaccid stretched penis and an erect penis, respectively, were 13.24 and 13.12 cm, In addition, the average circumference was 9.31 cm for a flaccid penis and 11.66 cm for an erect penis... In addition to this concern, referred to as small penis anxiety, some men who are preoccupied and severely distressed with the size of their penis may be diagnosed with body dysmorphic disorder...Penile shortening is a phenomenon that is associated with certain medical and surgical conditions. These conditions include prostate cancer patients treated with radical prostatectomy, Peyronie's disease and congenital anomalies. There is also some evidence that erectile dysfunction may be an independent risk factor for shortening... Standard measuringtechniques are necessary to determine the results of penile lengthening procedures...consult urologist they will examine and explain you about treatment modalities

I've been having some stomach pain for the past few days, and at first, I thought it was just from heat or something, so I ignored it. But then, I noticed a small red worm in my urine the next morning, which really scared me. This morning, it happened again. I'm super worried now. Could this be dangerous to my health? And I'm really concerned about whether it might affect my fertility. Can you please give me some advice?

I'm a bit worried because when I peed, it really hurt, and then when I wiped, it burned even more. Should I be concerned about this, or is there something I can do to help relieve the pain right now?

That could be UTI, get a complete Urine Examination and Urine culture sensitivity done and visit Physician for appropriate management and also consume plenty of fluids.
