I'm an 18-year-old guy and I've got this really tight foreskin, like phimosis or something. I can't pull it back when Im hard and not even when Im soft. It moves a little but stops when the opening gets to about a centimeter. Trying to move it further hurts a lot, so stretching it seems impossible. I've never had sex, and Im worried about how this might affect things. Is having sex possible with this condition, or am I going to need circumcision? I'm really hoping to avoid that if I can.

-It's still possible to have sex with phimosis, but it may be uncomfortable or painful. You could try gentle stretching exercises or consult a doctor about other treatment options like topical creams or non-surgical methods, which may help avoid circumcis

My son is 21 now and was born with an undescended testis. He had surgery at 1 year to bring it down, but now one testis isn't growing evenly and he's feeling slight pain there. Is this normal or could there be a problem?

I have phimosis and I'm really worried can it be treated with medication or will I need surgery? If surgery is the only option, can you recommend a good clinic in East Delhi for the procedure?

I'm 22 and started masturbating when I was 17, but I quit at 20. I didn't do it excessively - maybe 56 times a month. Then I skipped it for six months and occasionally for up to 23 months without experiencing nightfall. But now, since I stopped at 20, I've been having nightfall about 34 times a month. Some people say it's normal, but I don't think it is because it seems like my muscles aren't growing. Whenever nightfall stops for 15-20 days, I notice I look better. Then it hits again, and I start looking dull. It's really frustrating, and I'm worried about the future. Can this be cured? What should I do?
