I'm dealing with a really uncomfortable situation here. An ant bit me on the penis, and now it's all swollen. What should I do or use for this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It seems like the swelling is due to an allergic reaction to the ant bite. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and use a mild hydrocortisone cream or an antihistamine cream like calamine lotion to soothe the area. If the swelling worsens or you experience severe discomfort, consult a doctor.

View allI've been diagnosed with a hypotonic neurogenic bladder and have been dealing with slow urine flow, sometimes medium. Allopathy and surgery don't seem to offer a permanent cure. Are there any permanent treatment options in Ayurveda or homeopathy? I've been struggling with this for 1.5 years and visited multiple hospitals without much success. What would you suggest?
While both Ayurveda and homeopathy offer alternative approaches, neither is considered a "permanent cure" for hypotonic neurogenic bladder. They focus on symptom management and improving overall well-being. A comprehensive approach, including medication, physical therapy, and potentially surgical interventions, may be necessary for a permanent solution

I've noticed that after having intercourse with my partner, one side of my penis is swollen. There's no pain, but it does itch a bit. Is this normal after sex? Should I be doing something about it?
A swollen penis after intercourse, accompanied by itching but no pain, can be caused by an allergic reaction to latex condoms, lubricants, or spermicides, or by a skin condition like contact dermatitis; to alleviate symptoms, apply cool compresses, avoid scratching, and use antihistamine creams or hydrocortisone cream; however, if the swelling persists or worsens, or if you experience difficulty urinating, increased redness, or pain, consult a healthcare provider or a urologist for proper evaluation and guidance.
