I'm noticing some brown coloring on a part of the head of my penis. It doesn't hurt or irritate me, but it's made me anxious recently. I've only been pulling back my foreskin for about a year now, and I'm avoiding touching the head of my penis directly. Should I be concerned about this change in color?

The brown coloration on the area of your penis head could be due to a variety of reasons, including pigmentation changes, fungal infection, or even a benign mole. Since it has been present for a year and is not causing any symptoms, it is less likely to be a concerning issue. However, it is important to have it evaluated by a healthcare professional to rule out any serious conditions.

View allI'm dealing with this weird issue where the skin on my penis is really sticky and itchy. Its also a bit painful when I try to pull it back. Theres this sticky, white stuff on the head that looks kind of like dried semen, but I know its not. It's been about three days now and while it doesn't mess with my erections or passing urine, it's pretty uncomfortable. What could be going on and how should I treat it?
You may be experiencing symptoms of balanitis, which is inflammation of the foreskin and head of the penis. To help relieve the symptoms of itching and pain, you can try using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, and avoiding harsh soaps or irritants can also help. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

I have phimosis and really don't want to get surgery or a circumcision are there any other treatment options that could help me without going under the knife?
Yes, phimosis can often be treated without surgery. Non-surgical options include topical steroid creams to reduce inflammation and improve foreskin elasticity, manual stretching exercises to gradually loosen the foreskin, and, if an infection is present, antibiotics or antifungal creams
