I'm a bit concerned because my semen seems really thin, and my girlfriend has mentioned it doesn't feel satisfying for her. Do you have any advice or suggestions to improve this?

Mild Pain and Vibration in the Left Testicle

  1. Possible causes: Mild pain and vibration in the testicle can be caused by various factors, including:
    • Epididymitis (inflammation of the epididymis)
    • Orchitis (inflammation of the testicle)
    • Varicocele (enlarged veins in the scrotum)
    • Hydrocele (fluid accumulation in the scrotum)
    • Testicular torsion (twisting of the testicle)
  2. Vibration radiating to the left leg: This symptom could be related to nerve irritation or compression in the groin area.

Normal Ultrasound Results

  1. Further evaluation: Although the ultrasound results are normal, it's essential to further evaluate your symptoms.
  2. Physical examination: A thorough physical examination by a healthcare professional can help identify potential causes.
  3. Additional tests: Depending on the physical examination findings, additional tests may be ordered, such as:
    • Blood tests to check for infection or inflammation
    • Urine tests to check for urinary tract infections
    • Imaging tests (e.g., MRI or CT scan) to rule out other conditions

Recommendations

  1. Consult a urologist: Schedule an appointment with a urologist to discuss your symptoms and undergo a thorough physical examination.
  2. Monitor your symptoms: Keep track of your symptoms, including any changes in pain or vibration.
  3. Avoid self-diagnosis: Refrain from self-diagnosing or assuming the cause of your symptoms. A healthcare professional can provide an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

my foreskin doesn't pull back and it's really uncomfortable should i get surgery for this and how much would it cost

If your foreskin doesn't pull back and is causing discomfort, it could be phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. While some cases of phimosis resolve on their own, surgery might be necessary if conservative treatments don't work. The cost of surgery can vary depending on the procedure and your location, but you can expect to pay between ‚Çπ5,000 and ‚Çπ35,000 in India

When my penis gets erect, the skin feels too tight and doesn't move properly. The head doesn't come out fully from the skin, and trying to pull it back causes a lot of pain. What can I do to fix this without surgery?

I have category 1 phimosis where my foreskin retracts fully when flaccid but only goes halfway down the head when erect. It feels tight if I try to pull it further back. I don't think surgery is necessary can you recommend any steroid creams or medicines to help loosen and increase flexibility in the foreskin?

For category 1 phimosis, where the foreskin retracts fully when flaccid but not when erect, steroid creams can be a helpful treatment option to increase foreskin flexibility. Specifically, topical corticosteroids like hydrocortisone or stronger creams like clobetasol (Dermovate) can be applied to help reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin. Gentle foreskin stretching exercises, after applying the cream, can also be beneficial
