View allI'm thinking about using Emla cream to help with premature ejaculation, and I saw it contains lidocaine and prilocaine. Is this safe to use for this purpose? I'm just a bit concerned and would like some advice on whether it's a good idea or if there are any risks I should be aware of.
Emla cream is not typically used for premature ejaculation. It is a topical anesthetic cream commonly used to numb the skin before certain medical procedures. For premature ejaculation, medications like dapoxetine (Priligy) can be more effective.

I've had a grade 3 varicocele on my left side for about a year now. Do I really need surgery for this or can I just live with it? I'm not married yet what could happen if I leave it untreated? Is this something that could become life-threatening?
A Grade 3 varicocele can be a concern, and while it's not immediately life-threatening, it can potentially affect your fertility if left untreated. While you don't need to rush into surgery right away, a consultation with a doctor is recommended to determine the best course of action for your specific situation.

I'm experiencing some itching in the inner tip area of my penis, and it's been going on for a couple of weeks now. I've also noticed some redness on the skin at the back. What could this be, and should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for about 2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to help with the healing process. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
