Question 1

I have partial phimosis where my foreskin doesn't retract during an erection but works fine when flaccid. Is there a way to treat this without surgery? Can you suggest any home remedies or medications that might help?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there are non-surgical approaches to treating partial phimosis. These include gentle stretching exercises, topical steroid creams, and maintaining good penile hygiene. If the condition is mild, daily gentle retraction of the foreskin may be enough

Question 3

I'm a bit concerned because I've been having some pain in my testicles since last night, and I'm also needing to pee a lot, especially at night. Sometimes it's like I have to go every half hour. Is this something I should be worried about?

Accepted Answer

Urinary tract infections can be painful, but you can take steps to ease your discomfort until antibiotics treat the infection. Follow these tips:

Drink plenty of water. Water helps to dilute your urine and flush out bacteria.
Avoid drinks that may irritate your bladder.Avoid coffee, alcohol, and soft drinks containing citrus juices or caffeine until your infection has cleared. They can irritate your bladder and tend to aggravate your frequent or urgent need to urinate.
Use a heating pad. Apply a warm, but not hot, heating pad to your abdomen to minimize bladder pressure or discomfort.

Urethral stricture can sometimes be managed with dilation or endoscopy‚Äîfertility impact is rare; consult a urologist for personalized options.
