I'm 17 and I've noticed that my penis is completely covered by the foreskin, even over the glans. This makes it really difficult for urine to come out properly because the foreskin covers that area too. I'm not sure what to do or if I should be worried. Can you help me figure out what I should do next?

I'm 28 and I've been married for a couple of years, but I've recently started experiencing erectile dysfunction. I'm really unsure about what steps to take next. Can you advise me on what I should do?

My foreskin won't pull back over my penis should I be considering surgery or are there meds that can help with this? It's been really uncomfortable and I'm not sure what to do about it.

If your foreskin won't pull back over your penis and is causing discomfort, you might have phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. Treatment options include topical steroid creams and, in some cases, surgery like circumcision or frenuloplasty

I'm a bit concerned about my grandma's recent urine report. It says there are 15-20 pus cells per high power field. She doesnt really have any other issues, except she sometimes has incontinence. She's on some Ayurvedic treatment for that. What does it mean to have that number of pus cells? Should we be worried?

The normal range of pus cells in the urine is 0-5. Since the report suggests pus cells of 15-20 and bacteria is present, it is suggestive of urinary tract infection(UTI). Ideally you should send the urine for culture so that the most sensitive antibiotics can be used.
