I've noticed that my penis has been swollen for the past couple of days, and it's really itchy with the skin looking red on the inside. The head is also pretty swollen. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
This could be a sign of a fungal infection such as balanitis. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for about 1-2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

My frenulum feels tight when I'm erect but in flaccid state the foreskin moves down fully My doctor said it's frenulum breve and recommended frenuloplasty I'm confused about which option is better stitchless frenuloplasty or the one with stitches What are the pros and cons of each
Frenuloplasty, a procedure to address a tight frenulum (frenulum breve), can be performed with or without stitches. Both stitchless and stitch-based frenuloplasty aim to lengthen the frenulum and allow for normal foreskin retraction.

I'm curious about whether masturbating twice a week would cause a significant calorie loss. Also, does it have any impact on different parts of the body?
Masturbating twice a week burns about 20-30 calories per session. It's generally not harmful and doesn't significantly affect the body, though it can lead to temporary fatigue or muscle soreness in some people. As long as it's balanced with a healthy lifestyle, it's unlikely to cause any long-term issues.
