I was trimming the hair on my testicle, and I accidentally cut my right testis, which started bleeding immediately. I used turmeric powder, and the bleeding stopped, and there's no pain now. I'm just worried if this might cause any problems later on. Could you let me know if there's anything I should watch out for or do to prevent any future issues?

While trimming hair on your testicle, you got a cut on your right testis and bleeding started immediately. You applied turmeric powder and the bleeding stopped, and there is no pain. Using turmeric powder for minor cuts can help with its antiseptic properties. However, it is important to keep the area clean to prevent infection. If you notice any signs of infection such as increasing pain, redness, swelling, or discharge, you should seek medical attention. In this case, you can use an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Apply a small amount of Neosporin on the cut twice a day for a few days.

I'm dealing with erectile dysfunction and was wondering if Tetrafol Plus could help with that. If it's not recommended, do you have any suggestions for other medications that might work? I'm really looking for something effective.

Tetrafol Plus is primarily a multivitamin supplement and is not specifically used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). For ED, medications like Sildenafil (Viagra), Tadalafil (Cialis), or Vardenafil (Levitra) are commonly prescribed. It's best to consult with a healthcare provider for the most suitable treatment for your condition.
