Is it bad for our health to have anal sex? We've tried it a few times and I'm just wondering if it could lead to any health issues. Would you be able to provide some advice?

I just experienced some swelling on my penis after masturbating about 4 or 5 times in a row. It's really worrying me, and Im not sure what to do. Could you give me some advice?

You may be experiencing inflammation or irritation from excessive masturbation. I recommend taking a break from any sexual activity to allow your body to heal. You can also try using an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory cream like ibuprofen gel applied to the affected area to reduce swelling and discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent any further irritation. If the swelling persists or worsens, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I recently had a yeast infection on my penis and used Lobate GM cream along with a dose of fluconazole 150. While the fungus seems to be gone, now I've developed these red wounds on the head of my penis with this white liquid discharge. It's painful to touch and there's a burning sensation. What should I do about these new symptoms?

You may be experiencing a secondary infection or irritation after treating the yeast infection. The red wounds with white discharge and burning sensation could indicate a bacterial infection. I recommend using an antibiotic cream like Neosporin or Bacitracin on the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with the pain and inflammation. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to promote healing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with this phimosis situation, and Im not sure what the best ways to address it are. Things feel pretty tight down there, and I'm a bit concerned about it.

Phimosis can be managed with various treatments; possible solutions include topical steroid creams or ointments to reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin, manual stretching exercises under medical guidance, preputioplasty (a surgical procedure to widen the foreskin), or circumcision (a surgical procedure to remove the foreskin); consult a urologist or a dermatologist for personalized advice and treatment.
