I'm having trouble maintaining an erection during sex with my partner, even though I can get one during masturbation and foreplay. Its just during actual penetration where it becomes difficult to keep it up. I even tried taking Viagra 30 minutes before intercourse, but it didnt really help much. What can I do about this?

It sounds like you might be experiencing performance anxiety or a psychological component affecting your ability to maintain an erection during intercourse, even though you can achieve one during masturbation or foreplay. It's important to address any stress or anxiety related to sexual performance. I recommend consulting a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation, which may include physical or psychological factors, and to discuss potential treatment options beyond medications like Viagra.

View allThe USG scan showed a 5.2 mm kidney stone in my left kidney with slight hydroureteronephrosis and I've been having terrible pain. The doctor prescribed antibiotics but I'm worried can this stone pass on its own with just medication or will I need surgery?
A 5.2 mm kidney stone with hydroureteronephrosis may pass spontaneously but due to pain and obstruction signs, medical and sometimes surgical help is needed.

I'm really worried about something that happened yesterday. After I masturbated and ejaculated, my penis went numb and shrank. The foreskin got really loose, and it feels super short and cold now. I can't quite feel it right, and I'm also feeling really dizzy and depressed. I'm attaching a picture of my penis for you to check. Is there something wrong, and can it be fixed? Please let me know what's happening and what I should do.
Dont worry. It looks normal. Vigorous masturbation can cause pain and numbness just like if you rub your skin very roughly. It will get better on its own
