My foreskin feels really tight when I get an erection and it's causing discomfort. I don't have issues when I'm not erect, but during arousal, it gets too tight. Is there any way to fix this without surgery? I'd prefer non-surgical options if possible.

I had a BPH surgery in 2006 that went wrong and left me with uncontrollable incontinence after my sphincter was accidentally cut. In 2007, an Indian-American surgeon performed a sling surgery in Hyderabad, which helped for a while. But now the problem is back even small movements cause urine leakage. Should I consider another sling surgery or are there other options?
it's common that sling operation can give relief to few years,,, and there is always a chance of recurrence after sling surgery, either due to failure of sling operation or bladder over activity, there are other options available to control urinary incontinence or sling operation can be repeated but second time it's little complicated procedure. Consult a urologist for further help.

I have bilateral grade 1 varicocele and my left testicle hangs much lower and feels heavier than the right one. The urologist prescribed hetrazan and health okay tablets, but they aren't helping with the pain and discomfort. Should I consider surgery? What's the best type with the least complications?
While Grade 1 varicocele typically doesn't require surgery, if your symptoms persist, surgery might be considered. If the discomfort, testicle heaviness, and low hanging are persistent despite medication, exploring surgical options. Laparoscopic varicocelectomy is often the preferred approach due to its fewer complications and faster recovery
