I'm really wondering about what to do next. I was using Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment USP 0.5 for phimosis for the last couple of months while I was in America. Now that I'm in India, I'm finding it hard to find the exact same thing. I've heard about Betnovate and Diprovate G as possible alternatives. Could one of these be a good replacement, or is there something else I should consider? I'm honestly a bit concerned about switching and just want to make sure I'm continuing with the right treatment.

For phimosis, you can consider Betnovate (Betamethasone) or Diprovate-G (Betamethasone with Gentamicin). Both are effective, but Diprovate-G may help if there's an infection component due to the presence of Gentamicin. However, I recommend consulting your doctor to ensure the right choice based on your specific condition.

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.

I'm experiencing something that's been bothering me. Whenever my penis gets erect, sperm starts leaking, and after a while, it flows out. I also seem to be having issues with night emissions. Plus, when my penis becomes erect, it doesn't stay straight; it bends slightly to the right. Could you offer some advice on how to deal with these issues?

It sounds like you're experiencing a few concerns related to erectile function and nocturnal emissions. It's important to consult a healthcare professional, such as a urologist, to evaluate these issues in detail and determine any underlying causes. A proper diagnosis can help guide effective treatment options.
