I'm really worried because I've noticed this white fungus-like stuff on the head of my penis, and the outer skin isn't moving back like it usually does. I can't pull the skin back to clean it properly. What could this be, and how should I deal with it?

View allI'm having a bit of an issue with my foreskin not being able to pull back over the head of my penis because its too tight. From what Ive read, it seems like it might be phimosis. When I was a kid, a small part of my foreskin was cut by a doctor because it got stuck and wouldn't return to its normal position. There's an image attached for reference. Could you help me figure out whats going on and what I should do next?
That looks like Phymosis donot retract your foreskin,visit surgeon for appropriate management

I've been experiencing something a bit odd that I'm worried about. Sometimes when I urinate, I find myself short of breath, but it doesn't happen all the time. It's only occurred about 5 or 6 times, with the last episode happening around 5 months ago. I don't have any significant medical history, so I'm unsure what's causing this. I'm curious if there might be some remedies I could try at home, or if this is something serious enough to see a doctor about. If so, could you suggest what kind of specialist I should consult? Any advice would be really helpful.
Its possible that the shortness of breath while urinating could be related to a temporary imbalance in the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary functions like breathing and bladder control. However, it could also indicate an underlying issue like a heart condition or a urinary tract issue. Since it's been infrequent and you have no medical history, its advisable to consult a **general physician** or **cardiologist** for a thorough evaluation.

I'm having a penile infection that's been troubling me for the past 20 days. I've tried applying a few creams, but nothing seems to be working. What could be causing this, and is there something more effective I should try?
This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
