I'm thinking about using lignocaine jelly because I've heard it can help reduce the sensitivity of the glans penis, but I'm wondering how this might affect the process of getting an erection. I'm planning to apply it, but I'm a bit confused about how it all works together. Could you explain how lignocaine might impact erection and whether it's safe to use for this purpose?

Lignocaine jelly works by numbing the area it is applied to, reducing sensitivity. However, an erection is primarily caused by physical and psychological stimulation, leading to increased blood flow to the penis, not just sensitivity. So, even if the glans penis is less sensitive, the erection can still occur due to these other factors.

I'm really worried about my sexual performance lately. I can't last more than 23 minutes after insertion, and I've been wondering if my habit of almost daily masturbation could be affecting my stamina. Lately, my penis doesn't get as hard as it used to, and I'm having trouble with insertion too. Could these issues be related to my habits, and what can I do about them?

I've been experiencing this weird sensation where it feels like my urine is getting stuck in my urethra. My bladder thickness came out normal in tests, and I had a prevoid volume of 584ml and postvoid of 44ml. The prostate is supposed to be normal at 20.4 grams, but I have noticed there's less pressure when I try to pee in the morning. This has been going on for about 67 years, and even when I had it checked earlier, the doctor said everything seemed fine. He even applied pressure inside my anus, and some liquid came out of my penis, but tests showed no infection. I'm just confused about what's happening. Could you help me understand what might be causing this?

It sounds like you're experiencing symptoms of urinary retention or discomfort, which can sometimes occur without any underlying infection or structural issue, as your previous exams showed normal results. If the sensation persists or worsens, it might be helpful to follow up with a urologist for further evaluation to rule out any other causes, such as pelvic floor dysfunction or nerve issues.
