I'm 17 and uncircumcised but can pull back my foreskin fine do I still need surgery to remove it
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If you're 17 and can easily retract your foreskin, you likely do not need surgery. Circumcision is generally not necessary if the foreskin can be fully retracted, and you're not experiencing pain, swelling, or other issues

View allI 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?

My penis has a 30-degree curve to the right side, and I think it might be because I sleep on my stomach. Are there any home remedies, habits, or medicines that can help straighten it without needing surgery?
A 30-degree penile curve might be related to Peyronie's disease, a condition causing scar tissue to form inside the penis, leading to curvature, and can sometimes be painful. While sleeping on your stomach could potentially contribute, it's best to consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment options.
