I recently had sex for the first time and I'm feeling a bit worried. Whenever I pull back the skin on my penis, it hurts, and I'm also concerned because it seems smaller than average. I think there might be a specific condition related to this. Could you tell me what might be going on and if theres anything I should do about it?

A study was done on it according to it the average length of a flaccid penis was 9.16 cm, whereas the average lengths of a flaccid stretched penis and an erect penis, respectively, were 13.24 and 13.12 cm, In addition, the average circumference was 9.31 cm for a flaccid penis and 11.66 cm for an erect penis... In addition to this concern, referred to as small penis anxiety, some men who are preoccupied and severely distressed with the size of their penis may be diagnosed with body dysmorphic disorder...Penile shortening is a phenomenon that is associated with certain medical and surgical conditions. These conditions include prostate cancer patients treated with radical prostatectomy, Peyronie's disease and congenital anomalies. There is also some evidence that erectile dysfunction may be an independent risk factor for shortening... Standard measuringtechniques are necessary to determine the results of penile lengthening procedures...you need clinical examination to deal peeling issue...consult urologist they will examine and explain you about treatment modalities

I've been dealing with a paper cut on my foreskin. I went to see a general physician and took some medication. It seemed to be getting better for a while, but now it feels like it's come back. Im really worried about why it's not healing properly. Could this be a sign of something more serious, and what should I do next?
it has to heal completely ,you shouldn't stretch till it heals, if it's minor injury it will heal without any scar formation , don't have sexual intercourse till it heals , only after complete heal involve in sexual activities.
