Question 1

I'm 23 years old and I've noticed that my foreskin is attached to the tip of my penis, and it's painful when I try to pull it back. I'm really anxious about getting a circumcision, so I'm wondering if there's any other way to detach the foreskin. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Phimosis refers to the inability to retract the distal foreskin over the glans penis. Pathologic phimosis defines an inability to retract the foreskin after it was previously retractible or after puberty, usually secondary to distal scarring of the foreskin.
Paraphimosis is the entrapment of a retracted foreskin behind the coronal sulcus. Paraphimosis is a disease of uncircumcised or partially circumcised males....Up to 95% of cases of phimosis have been shown to respond to application of topical steroids to the preputial orifice, although some studies have suggested that this response rate may decline several months after the regimen is completed. An initial attempt at medical intervention has been shown to reduce costs by 27.3% in comparison with primary circumcision as a treatment...consult nearest urologist they will help you further

Since you're experiencing an ulcer-like lesion, its important to get a proper diagnosis from a healthcare professional. They may take a swab or perform an examination to identify any infections or other underlying conditions. If it doesnt improve or if you experience pain, discharge, or other concerning symptoms, its best to seek medical attention as soon as possible.

my 2 year old son has a tight foreskin that balloons when he pees and the doctor recommended circumcision but I'm really hoping there's another option besides surgery is there any alternative treatment we can try first

For your 2-year-old‚Äôs tight foreskin, many cases improve with gentle stretching exercises. If the doctor recommends circumcision, consider getting a second opinion or exploring non-surgical alternatives first.
