I have a small epididymis cyst on my left testicle that causes mild discomfort when my testicle tightens up. Should I see a urologist or a general surgeon for this? What are my treatment options?

I'm having trouble pulling back the foreskin on my penis, and it's causing a really uncomfortable tightness at the tip during full erections and when trying to insert. On top of that, I'm dealing with premature ejaculation. Should I be seeing a urologist for this, or is a general surgeon the better option? Also, is there a connection between this issue with my foreskin, phimosis I think it's called, and premature ejaculation?

You should consult a urologist, as they specialize in genital and urinary tract issues, including phimosis (difficulty retracting the foreskin) and premature ejaculation (PE); while phimosis and PE can coexist, they are not directly related, but treating phimosis through circumcision, preputioplasty, or frenuloplasty may help alleviate discomfort and tightness, which could indirectly improve PE symptoms, and a urologist can assess and address both concerns.

I've got a small cut on my foreskin that bled when it first happened and was painful. It doesn't bleed anymore, but sometimes I still feel pain, and it hasn't healed yet. What's going on, and should I be worried about this?

It sounds like you may have a small cut on your foreskin that is taking some time to heal. To help with the healing process and reduce pain, you can apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Polysporin on the cut twice a day. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like Tylenol to help with the pain. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and try to avoid any activities that may irritate the cut further. If the cut does not show signs of improvement or if the pain persists, it would be best to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.
