I'm having trouble pulling back the foreskin on my penis, and it's causing a really uncomfortable tightness at the tip during full erections and when trying to insert. On top of that, I'm dealing with premature ejaculation. Should I be seeing a urologist for this, or is a general surgeon the better option? Also, is there a connection between this issue with my foreskin, phimosis I think it's called, and premature ejaculation?

You should consult a urologist, as they specialize in genital and urinary tract issues, including phimosis (difficulty retracting the foreskin) and premature ejaculation (PE); while phimosis and PE can coexist, they are not directly related, but treating phimosis through circumcision, preputioplasty, or frenuloplasty may help alleviate discomfort and tightness, which could indirectly improve PE symptoms, and a urologist can assess and address both concerns.

View allI've been having an issue with the skin on my penis, specifically where it connects underneath it's only about 1 cm attached, and it feels too tight. Everything else seems fine, but when I'm having sex, it gets painful because the skin can't pull back all the way. I looked it up and think it might be a tight frenulum. The pictures I found online match exactly what's going on with me. Would surgery be the right fix for this?
It's possible you have a tight frenulum, also known as frenulum breve, which can cause pain during sexual activity and difficulty retracting the foreskin. While a surgical procedure, known as frenuloplasty, might be an option to lengthen the frenulum, it's best to discuss your concerns and potential treatment options with a doctor. They can properly assess your condition and determine the best course of action for you

I'm really worried about my dad. He had an abdomen scan and the results mentioned grade 1 prostatomegaly. What does that actually mean? Should we be concerned or is it something common? Could you help me understand this a bit more?
Grade 1 prostatomegaly indicates a mildly enlarged prostate (1-30% enlargement). It's generally not serious, but requires monitoring to prevent progression to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or prostate cancer. Consult a urologist for guidance.
