I've had this lump in my groin area under the skin for about a week now. It feels like a semi-hard ball and it really hurts when I touch it. Any idea on what it could be and how I can get rid of it?

I'm really concerned about the impact of circumcision on my sexual experience. I've heard it might lower pleasure and reduce interest. Is there any truth to this?

Is it possible to increase panis size by 2 inch without surgery. Please help me i am very depressed

Many pumps, pills, weights, exercises and surgeries claim to increase the length and width of your penis. But, there's little scientific support for nonsurgical methods to enlarge the penis. And no trusted medical organization endorses penis surgery for purely cosmetic reasons.

I've had tight foreskin since I was a kid and thought it would loosen over time if I kept pulling it back, but now I'm 25 and it's still really tight. There's only about a 34mm opening to pee through, and I get this white stuff building up that causes itching. I'm worried surgery might remove the whole foreskin are there other options that can fix this without taking it all off?

Yes, there are non-surgical options to address phimosis (tight foreskin) in addition to circumcision. You can try stretching exercises, using topical steroid creams, and practicing good hygiene to potentially loosen the foreskin and alleviate the symptoms you've described. If those methods are not effective, there are also surgical options that can address the problem without necessarily removing the entire foreskin
