I'm a bit concerned because my sex life used to be good, but recently I've noticed my penis isn't getting erect like it used to. I'm not sure what's going on and it's worrying me. Could there be an underlying issue causing this?

Erectile dysfunction can have various causes, including stress, anxiety, underlying health conditions, or medication side effects. It is important to consult with a doctor to determine the underlying cause. In the meantime, you can consider using medications like Viagra (sildenafil) at a starting dose of 50mg as needed, taken about 1 hour before sexual activity. However, please consult with a doctor before starting any medication for erectile dysfunction.

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.
