I've been told by an army doctor that I have phimosis, but when I checked myself, I couldn't find any issues. How can I check for phimosis at home on my own?

It is a condition in which the patient is unable to retract the foreskin.Phimosis is normal does not require treatment. If symptoms like redness ,swelling ,odor and difficulty in urination surgery opinion is advised to the patient.

View allI'm a bit concerned because a few days ago, I noticed some mild pain in my right testicle and now it's swollen. I've been taking painkillers, which helped a bit, but I've found a lump in my spermatic cord. Is this something I should be worried about? Should I see a urologist for this, or would a general surgeon be better?

I'm curious about something that's been worrying me. I've been masturbating daily for the last six months and I'm concerned about whether this could be harmful or have any side effects. How often is it okay to masturbate? I'm also a bit anxious because I haven't had any children yet. Could this habit affect my marriage or my chances of having children in the future? I would appreciate some guidance on this.

I'm really struggling with lasting longer during sex and it's been affecting my relationship. I've heard that some medications might help with controlling or delaying ejaculation, but I'm worried about whether this can actually solve the issue permanently. Can anyone give advice on how to increase the time, or if medication is a good route to take? Would appreciate any insights on this topic.
To increase sexual endurance, techniques like **squeeze method**, **start-stop method**, and practicing mindfulness can help control ejaculation. Medications like **SSRIs** or **topical anesthetics** may temporarily improve control, but they don't offer permanent solutions. Consulting a healthcare provider can help identify underlying causes and create a tailored approach.
