I'm a bit worried about the curvature of my penis. I've read that castor oil massages might help with this issue. Can this really improve the symptoms or even reduce the unwanted bend? Are there other oils or any methods you'd recommend to fix this kind of problem?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Castor oil massage may potentially help alleviate symptoms of a bent penis, but it's essential to understand the underlying cause of the curvature.
Causes of Penile Curvature:
- Peyronie's disease (fibrotic tissue formation)
- Injury or trauma
- Congenital conditions

View allMy foreskin covers the glans a bit and I can't fully retract it when I'm erect. Is this something that might need surgery or can it be managed another way?
If your foreskin only covers the glans slightly and you can't retract it fully, it might not need surgery. You could try gentle stretching exercises, or a urologist may recommend steroid creams. Surgery (circumcision) is a last resort if the condition causes pain or recurrent infections.

I've been dealing with paraphimosis for over a year now, and it's getting really frustrating. I'm not sure what steps to take. Could you guide me on what to do next? I'm really worried and would appreciate some quick advice.
Paraphimosis is a medical emergency that requires prompt attention; please immediately visit the nearest hospital or urology clinic, as delaying treatment can lead to serious complications, such as permanent damage to the penis, gangrene, or even amputation; a urologist may perform a manual reduction, circumcision, or preputioplasty to treat the condition.
