I'm curious about using coconut parachute oil for massaging my penis. My goal is to make it smoother, harder, and larger, aiming for a more satisfactory size. Is this an effective method, and are there any risks I should be aware of?

While massaging with coconut oil can help moisturize the skin, there is no scientific evidence to support that it will increase size, hardness, or enhance performance. For concerns about sexual health, it's best to consult a healthcare professional to address any specific issues you may have.

I've been noticing that some of the nerves on my penis have been swollen over the past couple of weeks. They feel kind of hard, almost like there's a blockage. Normally, it doesn't hurt, but I do feel pain when I press on them or during any sexual activity. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it considered normal?

it seems abnormal which needs evaluation visit urologist for evaluation and appropriate management.

I recently went to a urologist who told me my testicles are undescended and still in my lower abdomen based on an ultrasound scan. I'm 26 and worried it might be too late to fix this. Can you recommend a good doctor or hospital in Bangalore for this? Also, any idea what the surgery might cost roughly?

Surgery is the best option, we cant do anything much with medication, so go for surgery.
