I'm having this issue where it's really itchy inside my penis, and it's happening pretty often. I'm married, so I'm not sure what it might be. Should I see a doctor? And if I do, what exactly should I tell them about what's going on? Any ideas on what could help with this would be great.

Yes, it's essential to consult a doctor to determine the cause of the itching inside your penis, which could be due to a fungal or bacterial infection, allergy, or skin condition; be honest with your doctor, sharing details about the itching, such as when it started, frequency, and any other symptoms like discharge, redness, or pain; your doctor may perform a physical examination, take a sample for testing, and prescribe treatment, which could include antifungal or antibacterial medications, creams, or ointments.

I've had an encysted hydrocele for about 3 years now and I'm based in Chennai. Is surgery the only option for this or are there other treatments I can consider? It's been bothering me for a while and I'm not sure what to do next.

Surgery is typically the most effective way to treat an encysted hydrocele, though there may be non-invasive options like aspiration or drainage. Consult with a specialist in Chennai for the best course of action.

My brother has phimosis and can't pull his foreskin back. He only noticed this recently but doesn't have issues with erections or peeing. However, he's been experiencing premature ejaculation during masturbation. Is this because of phimosis? What are the treatment options, and can surgery be done at his age? His wedding is in August would recovery be possible by then? Need advice as soon as possible.

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
