Question 1

I'm a virgin and recently got pretty intimate with my girlfriend over the weekend. We both decided to hold off on actual sex, so we spent hours fooling around without crossing that line. My penis would go hard for a while and then soften when we stopped, and this cycle happened a few times on Sunday. But when we finally thought about having sex later that day, my penis just wouldn't get hard. I'm wondering if it was because my penis was fatigued from being erect so often beforehand. Is it normal, or could there be another reason like maybe performance anxiety? Im confused because I was able to get erections earlier, so Im not sure whats going on. Any thoughts?

Accepted Answer

When the penis is repeatedly becoming erect and then returning to a flaccid state without ejaculation, it can lead to temporary difficulty in achieving or maintaining an erection. This is because the penis may become fatigued from the repeated engorgement and relaxation of the blood vessels. In such cases, it is important to allow the penis an adequate amount of time to rest and recover before attempting sexual activity again. Additionally, ensuring that you are well-hydrated, well-rested, and not under excessive stress can also help improve erectile function. If this issue persists or if you have concerns about your sexual health, it may be beneficial to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.

Question 2

I'm dealing with a problem where the foreskin on my penis is really tight, and I can't pull it back at all. I can't see the inside of my penis, and it seems like others my age can do this easily. I've heard that having a tight foreskin can cause pain and maybe even bleeding during sex. I'm not sure what I should do about it, could you help me out with some advice?

Accepted Answer

To address this issue, you can try using a topical steroid cream such as Betamethasone 0.05% cream. Apply a small amount of the cream to the tight part of the foreskin twice a day for about 4-6 weeks. This can help to reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin. In severe cases where conservative measures do not work, a circumcision may be recommended by a healthcare professional. This is a minor surgical procedure where the foreskin is removed. However, it is important to consult with a doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific situation.

Question 3

I'm dealing with kidney stones in both kidneys, each about 34 mm, and I'm experiencing severe pain in my left flank and back. I tried taking Drotin, but it didn't help. The stones are in the upper pole of my left kidney. What should I do next? Any advice would be appreciated!

Most kidney stones won't require invasive treatment. You may be able to pass a small stone by:

Drinking water. Drinking as much as 2 to 3 liters a day may help flush out your urinary system. Unless your doctor tells you otherwise, drink enough fluid  mostly water  to produce clear or nearly clear urine....Pain relievers. Passing a small stone can cause some discomfort.
