I'm having trouble with my foreskin not being able to open or stretch properly. Are there any creams or gels available in India that can help with this? I really want to avoid having surgery. Any advice would be appreciated.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is tight. There are non-surgical options, such as steroid creams (like betamethasone), which can help stretch the foreskin. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider before using any treatment to ensure it's suitable for you.

My testicles have been feeling loose and painful for the past two years. The urologist said there's nothing to worry about since the echo test results were positive, but I'm still concerned. Could this discomfort be related to a lack of nutrients in my body? Could you please help clarify this for me?
Anal fissures can be sensitive and delicate during the healing process. Having sex with your partner may pose some risks: 1. Discomfort or pain during intercourse 2. Reopening or exacerbating the fissure 3. Introducing bacteria, potentially leading to infection To minimize risks, consider: 1. Waiting until your fissure is fully healed (usually 4-6 weeks) 2. Using lubricants and gentle positions to reduce discomfort 3. Practicing good hygiene and cleaning the area before and after sex Consult your doctor or a gastroenterologist for personalized advice.

I've been having this issue where the foreskin of my penis tears during sex. It happens when I'm aroused and the foreskin folds back, resulting in itching and sometimes even bleeding. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
You cant remove it.if it is painful or unable to retract the foreskin,then that could be phymosis for which you have to visit your surgeon for appropriate management.
