I have partial phimosis and I'm really worried about it can it be treated without needing surgery? What are my options and how effective are they? I'd prefer to avoid an operation if possible

Another effective alternate cure for phimosis is topical corticosteroids in the form of creams, ointments, or gels. Using these steroid creams for phimosis about 6-8 weeks improves the condition of phimosis in most cases. Topical steroids work by reducing the inflammation and loosening the foreskin.

View allI'm a bit worried because my penis isn't getting as hard as it used to during sex. I got married a couple of months ago, and before that, when I masturbated, everything was fine, and it was hard. But now, it's different, and I'm not sure why this is happening. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I can do about it?
You may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. I recommend trying a medication like Viagra (Sildenafil) 50mg about 30 minutes before sexual activity. This can help improve blood flow to the penis and make it easier to achieve a firm erection. Remember to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

I've been dealing with cuts on my foreskin for about a week now, and they're just not healing no matter what I try. Ive used boroline, candid b, dermikem oc creams, and even took some antibiotics, but nothing's working. It's like they start to heal, but then when I pee or pull the skin back, it gets painful again. It's really embarrassing to think about going to a doctor for this. I did feel a bit of relief after using coconut oil to clean it. Can you suggest any good treatments or medicine to try?
see a dermatologist..

My penis curves to the left at about a 45-degree angle can medicines help straighten it without needing surgery? I'm really worried about this and want to avoid surgery if possible. What options do I have?
If your penis curves to the left at a 45-degree angle, and you want to avoid surgery, you have several nonsurgical treatment options, including medications and devices. Medications like collagenase and verapamil, when injected into the penis, can help break down scar tissue and improve the curve. Traction devices, like vacuum erection devices or penile traction devices, can also help straighten the penis over time by gently stretching it.
