I've had a lump on my scrotum for about 10-12 years now. It started as a small pimple but slowly turned into a bigger lump. It doesn't hurt even when I press it, but it looks bad and bothers me a lot. I'm worried it might cause issues later. Can you tell me if I can treat it with medicine or if I'll need surgery to remove it?

A spermatocele happens when a cyst grows in the epididymis, a tube in each of your testicles that contains fluid and unused sperm. It doesn't cause any pain, but you can feel a spermatocele as a tiny, firm lump underneath the skin of the scrotum. Spermatoceles are harmless and can't become cancerous

View allI'm dealing with a bit of an issue. I masturbate every day, and sometimes my penis gets really dry, especially after going at it continuously. After I ejaculate, it becomes quite painful, almost unbearable for a moment, and occasionally I notice some urine leakage. The pain doesn't last long, but it's pretty intense, and my penis feels numb afterward. It just doesn't feel right. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

I'm wondering if applying olive oil every day to the penis and glans might lead to a loss of sensation there. Just a bit worried and curious about the possible effects it could have. Could this actually make the area less sensitive over time?
Daily massage with olive oil on the penis and glans is unlikely to cause a sensationless penis. However, excessive or improper use of any oil or substance could potentially lead to irritation or sensitivity issues. It's important to consult a healthcare provider if you experience any unusual changes or discomfort.

I've been noticing something worrying with my intimate health lately. My penis starts off firm, but after a while, it becomes a bit softer, even if I haven't ejaculated yet. I'm feeling a bit embarrassed about this situation. Is there anything I can do to get it back to how it used to be? I dont have any health problems, and I exercise regularly. Any advice would be appreciated!
It's understandable that you're feeling concerned, but this can sometimes happen due to stress, fatigue, or even mental factors like performance anxiety, even if youre physically healthy. Its important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, reduce stress, and communicate openly with your partner. If it continues, consulting with a healthcare professional may help address any underlying causes.
