My 17-year-old son is very active in sports but recently injured his penile tissue and is in a lot of pain. I'm worried about Peyronie's disease and want to avoid surgery or western medicine since it's such a sensitive issue. Are there effective homeopathic treatments for this condition?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Peyronie's disease, which causes penile curvature, can be treated with various methods, including medication, injections, and in some cases, surgery. Intralesional injections, especially with collagenase, are currently the only FDA-approved treatment for Peyronie's disease

View allmy urologist recommended surgery for phimosis but I'm not sure if it's the best option or if there are any side effects I should be worried about
It's understandable to have concerns about surgical options for phimosis, especially when you're unsure about the best course of action or potential side effects. Surgery for phimosis, often circumcision, is generally recommended when non-surgical treatments like steroid creams or manual stretching haven't been successful, or if the phimosis is causing significant problems like recurring infections or pain. Potential side effects of circumcision include infection, bleeding, and scarring, but these are usually manageable

I'm dealing with tight foreskin where I can pull it back normally when soft, but during an erection it's really painful and tight around the head almost like a burning sensation. I'm not sure if my frenulum is tight too. Is there any way to fix this without surgery?
It sounds like you may have phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract fully and comfortably. This can cause pain and discomfort during erections, potentially from a tight frenulum as well. Non-surgical treatments can help, including topical steroid creams and gentle stretching exercises

I've had a lump on my penis for a few years, and recently I've noticed two more smaller ones have appeared. I'm a bit worried about what this could mean. Any idea what might be going on?
This could be due to various reasons such as infections, cysts, or other underlying conditions. I recommend you to take Ibuprofen 400mg twice a day for pain relief and inflammation. Additionally, you can apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin on the lumps. However, it is important to have a physical examination by a healthcare provider to determine the exact cause and appropriate treatment.
