I have bilateral varicocele, worse on the left side and milder on the right. Can homeopathy actually help treat this or is surgery the only real option for relief? I'm worried about the long-term effects if left untreated but also hesitant about going under the knife right away. What would you recommend?

I'm experiencing a lot of sensitivity on the head of my penis, to the point where touching or massaging it is really uncomfortable. This is affecting my sex life because it's causing me to ejaculate too quickly. When I'm erect, touching it is almost unbearable. Do you have any advice on how I can manage this sensitivity?

I've had this issue where I accidentally cut my penis somehow last week, maybe with my nail or a zipper, and now there's a scab on it. It's about a centimeter long and hurts when I touch it. What should I do?

It sounds like you may have a minor wound on your penis. To help with healing and prevent infection, you can apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Bacitracin to the affected area twice a day. Keep the area clean and dry, and avoid any further trauma to the area. If the pain persists or if you notice any signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, or discharge, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm 19 and dealing with scrotal calcinosis there are about 34 medium-sized cysts and a few new ones starting to form. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? I'm really worried about it getting worse.

While scrotal calcinosis is a condition that may require surgery for definitive treatment, especially when cosmetic concerns arise, there are some alternative approaches that may be considered before surgery. These include observation, laser therapy, and cryotherapy, depending on the severity and location of the calcinosis.
