I have a tight frenulum with a very thin piece of skin attached to the tip of my penis at the bottom. What are the different types of frenuloplasty procedures available and which one is the least painful? Also, what's the approximate cost for this surgery in India? Should I consider getting circumcision done along with this procedure?

Frenuloplasty addresses a tight or short frenulum, the small skin fold connecting the foreskin to the glans. The procedure involves releasing the frenulum to improve retraction and reduce pain during erections. While circumcisicircumcision removes the entire foreskin, frenuloplasty focuses on the frenulum itself, preserving the foreskin

View allI'm having some trouble with my foreskin. It doesn't roll back as much as it's supposed to, and when I try to pull it down more, it starts to hurt. I'm really hoping to find a solution that doesn't involve surgery. Do you have any advice on what I might be able to do to fix this? It's really starting to affect my life, and I'd appreciate any guidance you can offer.
You likely have a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to retract; to resolve this without surgery, your doctor may recommend gentle manual stretching exercises, topical steroid creams like betamethasone to reduce inflammation, or preputioplasty devices that help gradually stretch the foreskin; it's essential to consult a urologist

I'm really worried about a kidney stone I have that's 1.2 cm; it showed up on a CT scan. I've been to a specialist hospital, and they mentioned the possibility of laser treatment. Is there any way this can be treated with medication instead? What should I consider?

I've recently started having sex without using a condom, and I've noticed that my frenulum is bleeding. Is this something that's common, or should I be concerned?
It is not uncommon for the frenulum to tear or bleed during vigorous sexual activity, especially without the use of lubrication. To help with the healing process and prevent infection, you can apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day and keep the area clean. It is also recommended to abstain from sexual activity until the area has fully healed to prevent further injury.
