I'm 29 and my foreskin is still attached to the head of my penis. I really don't want surgery are there any other ways to fix this? I'm getting married soon and worried it might cause problems in my sex life. Can you suggest the best doctor in Bangalore who can help with this?

It sounds like you're dealing with phimosis, where the foreskin is attached to the head of the penis. While surgery, like circumcision, is a common solution, there are non-surgical options you can explore. Topical steroid creams and stretching exercises, sometimes combined, can help loosen the foreskin, and there are also home remedies like using coconut oil for lubrication during stretching. If you'd like to explore these options, consult with a urologist or a general surgeon specializing in men's health in Bangalore

my penis hasn't grown since childhood and stays around 3 inches when erect is this normal or could there be an underlying issue are there any surgical options to address this

A penis length of around 3 inches when erect may suggest a condition called micropenis, which can have hormonal or developmental causes. It's important to consult an endocrinologist or urologist for proper evaluation. Surgical options like penile lengthening procedures exist but are considered only after medical assessment and counseling.

Varicocele typically doesn't resolve on its own and may even worsen over time. Surgery is often the most effective treatment, though some lifestyle adjustments or exercises may help alleviate symptoms. Frequent masturbation does not directly cause varicocele, but can lead to temporary discomfort or pain.

I was trimming the hair on my testicle, and I accidentally cut my right testis, which started bleeding immediately. I used turmeric powder, and the bleeding stopped, and there's no pain now. I'm just worried if this might cause any problems later on. Could you let me know if there's anything I should watch out for or do to prevent any future issues?

While trimming hair on your testicle, you got a cut on your right testis and bleeding started immediately. You applied turmeric powder and the bleeding stopped, and there is no pain. Using turmeric powder for minor cuts can help with its antiseptic properties. However, it is important to keep the area clean to prevent infection. If you notice any signs of infection such as increasing pain, redness, swelling, or discharge, you should seek medical attention. In this case, you can use an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Apply a small amount of Neosporin on the cut twice a day for a few days.
