I'm having a problem with the skin on my penis not retracting during sex with my partner. It seems like it's not opening properly. I've been using oil whenever we have sex, but I'm not sure if that's okay. Is there something I should be doing differently, or should I be worried about this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing tightness of the foreskin, a condition known as phimosis, which can make it difficult for the skin to retract during sex. Applying a lubricant, such as oil, can help reduce friction, but its important to consult a doctor for an accurate diagnosis and explore treatment options, such as gentle stretching exercises or, in some cases, medical intervention.

View allI've been having pain around my left lower back and was diagnosed with PUJ obstruction. The doctor suggested surgery, and I'm considering laparoscopic robotic surgery to minimize scarring. Can you tell me if this surgery is a good option for my condition and what I should expect?
Laparoscopic PUJ surgery is safe and scar-minimizing—expect 1–2 weeks recovery with low risk.

I've been having trouble with urine getting stuck and not flowing properly, especially when sitting or lying down for long periods. Even when I feel the urge to go, it's hard to empty my bladder completely unless the stream is really strong. Doctors mentioned surgery, but I'm wondering if there are any treatments or surgical options that don't involve removing the prostate gland? What else can be done to help with this?

I'm having some trouble and really need some advice. For about a week now, I've been experiencing a heavy pain and a burning sensation when I pull the skin back on my penis. It also hurts the same way when I urinate and even when I go potty. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm not sure whether I should see a dermatologist or a sexologist about this. Could you guide me on which doctor would be the best to consult?
You may be experiencing symptoms of a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted infection. It is important to consult a Urologist for a proper evaluation and treatment. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like Ibuprofen and drink plenty of water to help with the burning sensation.
