I had surgery at 18 for a urinary infection that left my penis deformed. Now at 33, my penis is only about an inch when erect even when watching films, and my testicles don't react they're very small and don't seem to function. I feel tense with a fast heartbeat when aroused, and while there's some blood flow, my penis stays small. I'm always inactive and worried about this. Could this be hormonal or related to my past surgery? What could be causing this lack of response?

I'm experiencing some discoloration on the glans of my penis and suspect it might be balanitis. I'm just unsure if I should see a urologist or another type of specialist. Could you advise on who would be the right doctor to consult for this issue?

For balanitis, you can consult a Urologist. They can prescribe you an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole to apply on the affected area twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry is important for recovery.
