I've been noticing some itching at the tip of my penis recently, and it started happening after I got a handjob at a massage parlour. It's been about a week now, and while the itching has reduced to occurring just once a day, I'm a bit worried. Could this be herpes or maybe just a reaction to the lubricant that was used? What should I do next?

I'm noticing that my foreskin and glans have become red, and sometimes there's a bit of irritation on the foreskin, with a burning-like feeling. Right now, I'm using coconut oil during the day and Nizral cream at night. I'm wondering if I should consider getting circumcised to solve this issue, or if there's something else I could try first. Any advice?

I'm a bit worried because my sperm doesn't seem to shoot out like I thought it should. Is this a problem I should be concerned about? Also, how many times is it normal to ejaculate in one night?

I think it is normal that your sperm doesnt shoot out. In my experience the volume and power of ejaculation varies from orgasm to orgasm.Masturbation habit is a safe and healthy sexual practice before marriage. But masturbation not more than twice a week is ideal.

I have a hydrocele in my left testicle can it be treated without surgery? If yes, where should I go for help?

Can Hydrocele be Medically Treated? The short answer is, NO.. If the hydrocele is relatively small and does not cause discomfort, it might not require any treatment. There isn't a medication currently available that can treat hydrocele effectively
