I've had phimosis since birth and live in East Delhi. I really don't want to get surgery are there any non-surgical treatment options I can try? What would you suggest?

One of the best home remedies for phimosis to cure phimosis without surgery is to gently stretch and retract the foreskin with the help of warm water and coconut oil. All you need to do is pour some lukewarm water over the penis, lubricate it with coconut oil and then try to retract the foreskin gently and gradually.

I've been experiencing something strange and I'd love some advice. Every time I drink water, I feel the need to pee quite soon after, like every 15 to 20 minutes. Its almost like I have to force it at the end to feel like I'm done. Plus, there's this dull pain in my lower right abdomen that sometimes radiates to my penis. It's uncomfortable, but after a while, it does go away. Also, I've noticed a feeling of swelling inside my stomach on the right lower side. Any idea what could be causing this?

Pelvic pain can radiate to the penis and surrounding areas. _Possible Connections_ 1. _Referred pain_: Pain from the lower abdomen (possibly related to IBS) can refer to the penis and pelvic area. 2. _Pelvic floor muscle tension_: IBS can lead to pelvic floor muscle tension, which may cause pain in the penis and surrounding areas. 3. _Neurological overlap_: The nerves that transmit pain signals from the abdomen and pelvis can overlap, causing pain to radiate to the penis. _Other Possible Causes_ 1. _Prostatitis_: Inflammation of the prostate gland can cause pain in the penis, pelvic area, and lower abdomen. 2. _Urethritis_: Inflammation of the urethra can cause pain while urinating, which may radiate to the penis and pelvic area. 3. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Tightness or strain in the pelvic floor muscles, lower back, or abdominal muscles can cause referred pain to the penis. _What to Do_ 1. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a urologist to discuss your symptoms and determine the underlying cause. 2. _Manage IBS symptoms_: Continue to manage your IBS symptoms through diet, stress management, and medication (if prescribed). 3. _Pelvic floor physical therapy_: Consider consulting a pelvic floor physical therapist to help manage pelvic floor muscle tension and alleviate pain.

I've been having really bad pain in my lower abdomen and my IVP report says my left kidney isn't showing up on the scan. The doctor told me my left kidney is in the tube and surgery isn't an option. I'm really worried is there any chance surgery could still be possible? What does this mean for me?

kindly share report
