I'm having some trouble pulling my foreskin back over my penis. I'm 25 and this is something I've just recently discovered. Plus, I'm dealing with erectile dysfunction because I can't maintain an erection for more than 30 seconds. What could be causing these issues and what should I do?

my foreskin retracts fine when soft but gets stuck when erect is surgery the only way to fix this or are there other treatments that could help

While surgery (circumcision) is a common treatment for phimosis (tight foreskin), it's not always the only option. Non-surgical treatments, such as stretching exercises, steroid creams, and addressing underlying issues like infections or skin conditions, can also be effective

I'm feeling really worried about some health issues I'm experiencing. I've tested positive for HSV 1 IgG at 3.9, but my HSV 1 IgM is negative. I had unprotected sex about a year ago and my HIV test has come back negative since then. However, I've been dealing with a burning sensation on my penis and there's also pimples on the glans that aren't water-filled. I'm also experiencing a burning sensation on my tongue. I haven't started any treatment for HSV yet and I'm really concerned because I read online that not treating HSV could possibly lead to HIV in the future. I'm unmarried and this has me wondering if it's safe for me to get married in the future. Lastly, I had a liver sonography that revealed a grade 1 fatty liver about a month ago. Is this related to the HSV? What should I be doing now? I'm really in need of some guidance.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm 21 and have been masturbating since I was 16, but didn't know the foreskin was retractable until recently. Now when I do it, I pull my skin back to the ridge, but I've never really been able to ejaculate fullyit just sort of dribbles out. Also, I've noticed my penis has a slight left bend from the base when erect. I think that might be due to how I wore pants as a kid. Is there a way to actually shoot sperm, or is there something wrong with what I'm doing?

You may have a condition called phimosis, which is when the foreskin is tight and cannot be fully retracted. This can sometimes affect ejaculation. I recommend you try using a topical steroid cream like Betamethasone to help loosen the foreskin. As for the slight curvature of your penis, it is likely not related to your pant wearing style and is quite common. To improve your chances of ejaculating, you can try using medications like Sildenafil before sexual activity. If these issues persist, it would be best to consult with a urologist for further evaluation and management.
