I'm a 29-year-old male and I've never been able to pull my foreskin back when erect, though I can stretch it to the level shown in the picture when flaccid. My main concerns are do I need surgery or can this be managed with stretching exercises and creams? Also, is this because of a tight foreskin or a short frenulum breve like in the picture?

With hormone treatment, your child is given shots of a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin. This could cause the testicle to move to the scrotum. But hormone treatment often is not recommended, because it's much less effective than surgery.

I've noticed a lump under my testicles for the past few days. It's not really painful, but if I play or masturbate, I start feeling a dull ache in my testicles. When I touch it, the lump doesn't feel very hard, more like a worm-like structure. Also, sometimes my scrotum feels heavy and looks like it's hanging lower on one side. What could this be?
Tongue Ulcer and Concerns about Oral Cancer _Symptoms:_ 1. Ulcer on the right side of the lower tongue 2. Minimal pain, unless touched 3. No improvement with Zytee gel application for 3 days _Concerns about oral cancer:_ 1. _Unlikely to be oral cancer_: Most oral cancers are painful, grow rapidly, and are associated with other symptoms like difficulty swallowing, numbness, or bleeding. 2. _More likely a traumatic or infectious ulcer_: Given the location and your history of broken teeth and dental issues, the ulcer might be caused by trauma (e.g., biting your tongue) or infection. _Recommended steps:_ 1. _Consult a dentist or oral surgeon_: Schedule an appointment to evaluate the ulcer and your dental issues. 2. _Biopsy (if necessary)_: If the dentist suspects something unusual, they might recommend a biopsy to rule out oral cancer. 3. _Treatment for the ulcer_: Your dentist might prescribe antibiotics or antifungal medications, depending on the cause of the ulcer. 4. _Address dental issues_: Get your broken teeth and dental issues treated to prevent further complications. _Oral cancer screening:_ 1. _Regular dental check-ups_: Visit your dentist regularly for oral cancer screenings, especially if you have a history of tobacco use, heavy drinking, or a family history of oral cancer.

I'm a 25-year-old guy with tight foreskin that hurts when I pull it back. Surgery isn't something I want to consider right now are there other ways to manage this?
Topical steroid creams and gentle stretching may help phimosis and frenulum breve; surgery like preputioplasty is minor and effective if needed.
