I've been feeling a burning sensation right after peeing for the past week, and the tip of my penis has been itching. I also have itching in my underarms, between my thighs, and around my scrotum could this be a fungal or bacterial infection spreading from one area to another? I've been using soap and powder to manage it, but the itching at the tip won't go away. Also, I have a tight foreskin (phimosis) and noticed a red, curved line from my shaft to the head when I pulled it back. I'm really nervous about surgery and talking to my parents what can I do to stop the itching and manage the tight foreskin? Are there stretching exercises that could help?

I've been experiencing a tickling sensation when I urinate, along with the frequent urge to go every 30 minutes, for the last 56 days. Every time I finish, it feels a bit like a mini orgasm. Sometimes it gets a little itchy, but there's no blood or burning sensation. I've been drinking around 7-8 glasses of water a day, eating home-cooked meals that aren't too oily or spicy. Everything else seems normal. Should I be worried or get this checked out?

It sounds like you might be experiencing mild irritation or possibly a urinary tract infection (UTI), which can cause the sensations you're describing. Even though there's no burning or blood, the frequent urge to urinate and tickling sensation can still be signs of a UTI or another issue. If it persists, I would recommend consulting a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment.

I've had a dull pain in my left testis for quite a while now. My USG scrotum showed a Grade III varicocele I've attached the report. What non-surgical treatments would you recommend for this? I'm a bit worried about the long-term effects if left untreated.

For a Grade III varicocele causing pain, initial non-surgical treatments focus on managing pain and discomfort. These include over-the-counter pain relievers, scrotal support with jock straps or snug underwear, and ice packs to reduce swelling. While these may offer temporary relief, Grade III varicoceles are often more severe and may require further intervention if pain persists or fertility is a concern

I'm a bit worried because I used to have random and morning erections, which I assumed were normal, but for the past month they've stopped completely. I also feel like my sex drive has really decreased. Is this something I should be concerned about, or could it be a normal phase?

It's not uncommon for sexual drive and erections to fluctuate due to factors like stress, lifestyle changes, or hormonal imbalances. However, if youve noticed a persistent decrease in libido and erectile function, it might be helpful to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues like hormonal imbalances or other health conditions.
