I'm 27 and dealing with phimosis but really scared of surgery. Are there any other ways to treat it without going under the knife? What options do I have?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If you're experiencing phimosis and want to avoid surgery, there are several non-surgical options you can explore. These include topical steroid creams, stretching exercises, good hygiene practices, and in some cases, balloon dilation.

View allI'm experiencing some issues with having sex for the first time. Can I use lignocaine hydrochloride gel IP for this? How should I apply it? Id really appreciate some guidance on this.
Lignocaine hydrochloride gel can be used to help with premature ejaculation by desensitizing the area, but it's essential to use it as per the instructions on the packaging. Apply a small amount to the tip of the penis about 15-20 minutes before intercourse, but avoid using too much to prevent numbness in your partner. If you're facing ongoing issues, consider consulting a healthcare provider for further guidance.

I've been feeling a lot of tickling on the top and a little deeper inside my hips lately, and my urine has been yellow for a few days now. What's going on with my body?
Too much tickling on the upper side and top of the penis, along with discomfort deep inside the hips and yellow urine could be indicative of a urinary tract infection. I would recommend taking an antibiotic like Ciprofloxacin to treat the infection. Additionally, it would be beneficial to drink plenty of water to help flush out the bacteria causing the infection.

Circumcision at 31 to address a tight foreskin (phimosis) is generally safe and can be done for both medical and personal reasons. A urologist is the best healthcare professional to consult about this procedure
