I've been diagnosed with phimosis and I'm not sure what to do should I consider laser surgery or are there natural treatments that might work? I'm a bit worried about the risks and recovery time with surgery but also want something effective

For phimosis, non-surgical treatments like steroid creams and stretching exercises are often tried first. If these aren't effective, surgical options like circumcision or preputioplasty might be considered. Laser circumcision offers a minimally invasive surgical alternative with potential benefits like faster healing

I'm 22 and started masturbating when I was 17, but I quit at 20. I didn't do it excessively - maybe 56 times a month. Then I skipped it for six months and occasionally for up to 23 months without experiencing nightfall. But now, since I stopped at 20, I've been having nightfall about 34 times a month. Some people say it's normal, but I don't think it is because it seems like my muscles aren't growing. Whenever nightfall stops for 15-20 days, I notice I look better. Then it hits again, and I start looking dull. It's really frustrating, and I'm worried about the future. Can this be cured? What should I do?

How can I tell if my phimosis is congenital or developed as an adult also does having phimosis mean I'm impotent and can congenital phimosis be treated with betamethasone cream instead of surgery
Phimosis, whether congenital (present at birth) or acquired (developing later in life), does not automatically mean you are impotent. Congenital phimosis can sometimes be treated with topical corticosteroids like betamethasone cream, but surgery may still be necessary.
