My foreskin is really tight and hard, making it difficult to pull back. Is this something serious? Do I need surgery to fix it?

A tight foreskin, known as phimosis, is not always a cause for concern, especially in children, as it can naturally loosen as they grow. However, if it's painful, prevents proper hygiene, or leads to complications, it may require treatment, which could include steroid creams or, in some cases, surgery.

I'm a bit concerned because I've noticed my semen looks brown, and I'm not sure if it's blood or something else. There's no pain when I ejaculate, but I still feel uneasy about it. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on?

Brown semen could indicate the presence of blood, which may be due to various reasons such as infections, prostate issues, or other underlying conditions. However, since you do not experience any pain when ejaculating, it is less likely to be a serious issue. I recommend you to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.
