I'm a 21-year-old guy with a tight foreskin, and it's making me nervous about sex because I'm worried it'll hurt. I've been thinking about circumcision but don't know much about the procedure or what to expect after. Should I bring someone with me when I get it done, and roughly how much does it cost in Bangalore? Also, how long does recovery usually take? I really want to get this sorted soon since it's been bothering me a lot.

I'm kind of worried because after taking Alfoo, Levotas, and Chymoral AP for some urinary issues last night, I started feeling really dizzy with a racing heart and blocked nose. Are these side effects something to be really concerned about, and should I stop taking them?

The symptoms you're experiencing, such as dizziness, weakness, rapid heartbeat, and nasal congestion, after taking Alfoo, Levotas, and Chymoral AP, are likely adverse reactions to one or more of these medications; Alfoo (Alfuzosin) can cause dizziness and rapid heartbeat, while Levotas (Valsartan) may lead to dizziness and nasal congestion; Chymoral AP may also contribute to these symptoms; discontinue these medications immediately
