For a small, non-bleeding cut on the frenulum, apply gentle care: clean with mild soap and lukewarm water, pat dry, and apply a thin layer of antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to promote healing and prevent infection; however, if pain increases, or you notice signs of infection (redness, swelling, pus), consult a healthcare professional or urologist for further guidance.

I've had an enlarged scrotum since childhood and suspect it might be hydrocele. I'm considering surgery but worried it could affect my chances of joining the navy since that's my career goal. Can you advise if hydrocele surgery would disqualify me or if there are other treatment options that wouldn't impact my navy eligibility?

hydrocelectomy is avised,sx opinion.

I'm worried about my sex stamina because it seems really low, and I feel like I'm not satisfying my wife. Also, my penis size is small, and I'm concerned that's part of the problem. What can I do to improve our sex life?

It's important to remember that sexual satisfaction involves emotional connection, communication, and mutual understanding, not just physical factors. If you're concerned about stamina or size, consulting a healthcare provider can help address any underlying issues and explore options like lifestyle changes, counseling, or treatments that may improve your confidence and performance.
