I'm thinking about getting circumcised because my foreskin is becoming an issue when I'm trying to clean my penis. Do you think this is a good idea?

Circumcision can be a good choice for some men, especially if there are ongoing issues with hygiene or foreskin-related problems such as phimosis. Consulting with a urologist is the best course of action to help you make an informed decision tailored to your specific needs and concerns. They can provide a full assessment and ensure that circumcision is the appropriate choice for your situation.

Question

I'm facing a really painful issue. Every time I have sex or my partner gives me oral, my foreskin tears, and it's really hurting a lot. It's especially painful if I try to have sex within the next day or two after it happens. It usually takes around 23 days for it to heal completely. What can I do about this, and is there a way to prevent it from happening in the first place?

Question

I've noticed some white skin on the tip of my penis, and it's really sensitive to touch. The rest of the skin feels normal, almost like there's a difference I can't explain. What could this be, and should I be worried about it?

Question

I'm experiencing a sharp pain at the tip of my penis and some irritation on the foreskin. Can you recommend any general painkillers I can use until I see the doctor on Monday?
