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.

I'm a 21-year-old male and I've been having recurring UTIs. I had one back in January, where my abdomen scan was normal but the urine culture showed E. coli. My doctor prescribed Nitrofurantoin for 14 days along with Citralka and Meftalspas. Then in May, I got another UTI. Again, my abdomen scan was normal but E. coli showed up in the culture. This time, I was given 14 Amikacin 500 injections for a week plus Citralka. I felt fine for about 15 days, but now I'm experiencing a burning sensation when I pee. I'm really concerned and don't know what to do next. Can you help?
Consult with a urologist for a thorough evaluation. Get a urine culture with antibiotic sensitivity testing. Follow a personalized treatment plan, potentially involving a different antibiotic or longer treatment. Make necessary lifestyle changes and practice preventive measures to avoid further infections.

I've been experiencing these on-and-off vibrations in my penis for the past couple of days, and it's never happened before. Is this something I should be worried about? What do you think I should do?
Intermittent vibrations in the penis could be due to various reasons such as nerve issues, muscle spasms, or even psychological factors. It is important to rule out any underlying medical conditions.
