I'm dealing with a curved penis that leans to the left and I feel like it's too small. I'm really looking to straighten it out and maybe increase the size too. What can I do about this?

View allI've been dealing with this issue where my foreskin sticks to the glans, and I've noticed there's some whiteness on the glans too. The skin doesn't retract when I have an erection. It used to not retract at all, but I've been gently trying to retract it in warm water, and now it retracts a bit more, but only up to about 25. I really want to avoid circumcision if there's another solution, even if it takes a while. Are there any topical creams or treatments you could recommend?
Possible Causes of Enlarged Spleen (Splenomegaly)_ 1. _Infections_: Bacterial, viral, or parasitic infections, such as mononucleosis, malaria, or tuberculosis, can cause splenomegaly. 2. _Liver diseases_: Liver conditions like cirrhosis, liver cancer, or fatty liver disease can lead to splenomegaly. 3. _Blood disorders_: Blood-related conditions, such as lymphoma, leukemia, or anemia, can cause an enlarged spleen. 4. _Other causes_: Splenomegaly can also be caused by rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or other autoimmune disorders. _Does Fatty Liver Cause Enlarged Spleen?_ 1. _Indirect relationship_: Fatty liver disease can contribute to splenomegaly indirectly by increasing pressure in the liver and spleen. 2. _Common underlying causes_: Both fatty liver and splenomegaly can be caused by similar underlying factors, such as obesity, diabetes, or high blood pressure. _Treatment Options_ 1. _Address underlying causes_: Treat underlying conditions, such as infections, liver diseases, or blood disorders, to help reduce spleen enlargement. 2. _Medications_: Depending on the underlying cause, medications like antibiotics, antivirals, or immunosuppressants may be prescribed. 3. _Lifestyle modifications_: Adopt a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management, to help manage underlying conditions.

Hey, so my dad's testicles started bleeding even though he didn't get hurt or anything. We noticed his blood pressure was really high at 19090 mmHg when we went for first aid. They said a vein might have burst, causing the bleeding. Could his high blood pressure be the reason for this? Also, what should we do next? Should we go see a doctor straight away or anything else we need to consider?
Yes, high blood pressure (19090 mmHg) can cause a varicocele (enlarged vein) to rupture, leading to testicular bleeding; immediate medical attention is crucial to rule out other potential causes, such as testicular torsion or tumor, and to prevent further complications.

My 4-year-old son was diagnosed with glandular hypospadias, chordee, and a tight urethral opening doctors recommended surgery but I'm worried about risks and recovery. What should I expect with his condition and the procedure?
Hypospadias surgery, while generally successful, carries potential risks and a recovery period that can be a bit challenging. Your son's condition, including glandular hypospadias, chordee, and a tight urethral opening, will be addressed with surgery, which may involve moving the urethral opening to its proper location and releasing the chordee, a downward curve of the penis. The recovery period typically includes pain management, potential catheter use, and follow-up appointments. While the procedure is generally safe and the surgery is usually done on an outpatient basis, complications like scarring, infection, or urethral narrowing can occur, though they are generally rare
