My father has been dealing with urinary issues for a while now and his PSA levels are really high. His urine flow keeps getting weaker every day. Can this be treated with surgery or medication? What options do we have?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A high PSA level and a weak urine stream in men can be a sign of several conditions, including an enlarged prostate (BPH) or prostate cancer. It's crucial for your father to consult with a doctor or urologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

what are the best non-surgical treatments for phimosis besides stretching exercises i'm looking for options that don't involve surgery and want to know what actually works
For non-surgical phimosis treatment options beyond stretching, topical steroid creams and balloon dilation are commonly used. Steroid creams, like betamethasone or hydrocortisone, can soften and stretch the foreskin, often combined with stretching exercises. Balloon dilation involves inflating a small balloon under the foreskin to gradually stretch it, usually performed under local anesthesia. Good hygiene and addressing any underlying infections are also crucial

I'm a bit worried because I've noticed small red spots on the inner head of my penis. They showed up about 23 days after I had oral sex, and they're giving me a slight sensation. Could you please let me know what this might be and what steps I should take?
The small red spots on the inner head of your penis, accompanied by a slight sensation, may be caused by several factors related to oral sex. Here are some possible explanations: *Possible Causes* 1. *Irritation or Allergic Reaction*: Your partner's mouth or saliva might have caused irritation or an allergic reaction, leading to red spots and discomfort. 2. *Cuts or Micro-Trauma*: Minor cuts or micro-trauma during oral sex can cause red spots and sensitivity. 3. *STDs or STIs*: Certain sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) or infections (STIs), such as herpes, syphilis, or gonorrhea, can cause red spots or sores on the genitals. 4. *Balanitis*: This is an inflammation of the glans penis, often caused by poor hygiene, irritation, or infection. *Next Steps* 1. *Consult a Doctor*: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician, urologist, or a dermatologist to evaluate the red spots and determine the underlying cause. 2. *Get Tested for STDsSTIs*: Even if you're in a monogamous relationship, it's essential to get tested for STDsSTIs to rule out any potential infections. 3. *Practice Good Hygiene*: Maintain good genital hygiene, and avoid any further irritation or trauma to the affected area. 4. *Abstain from Sexual Activity*: Avoid any sexual activity until you've consulted a doctor and received proper guidance.
