my foreskin doesn't pull back and it's really uncomfortable should i get surgery for this and how much would it cost
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If your foreskin doesn't pull back and is causing discomfort, it could be phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. While some cases of phimosis resolve on their own, surgery might be necessary if conservative treatments don't work. The cost of surgery can vary depending on the procedure and your location, but you can expect to pay between ‚Çπ5,000 and ‚Çπ35,000 in India

View allI've been dealing with what's probably jock itch and I've been sexually active while this was happening and even masturbated. Now there's this swelling on my penis, like half an inch down from the head, forming a ring about the same width around it. I'm circumcised, but there's also a lot of swelling at the bottom of the head, particularly on the foreskin underneath. I'm really worried about all this and I am wondering what the problem could be and how to handle it as soon as possible.
This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I've got a 6.2mm stone in my left kidney, and I'm wondering if it's possible to flush it out just by drinking lots of water. Is there any chance I could avoid taking medicine for this?
you need to take relaxants along with water

I've been having some issues that are making me worried. I'm a 21-year-old male, and I've noticed that if I drink a lot of water, within just 15 to 30 minutes I get an urgent need to pee and can't seem to hold it for long. I end up going to the bathroom 2 to 3 times within an hour. Also, if I eat more than usual, I feel like I need to use the latrine right away. I do have a 7mm kidney stone, and my doctor advised me to drink plenty of water. But now, with these symptoms, I'm starting to wonder if they could be related to diabetes. Could that be a possibility? It's really starting to bother me, and I'd love to hear your thoughts.
