My foreskin is really tight and I'm not sure if I need surgery for it. Can a video consultation help figure that out or should I go see a doctor in person?

View allI've been having an issue with the skin on my penis, specifically where it connects underneath it's only about 1 cm attached, and it feels too tight. Everything else seems fine, but when I'm having sex, it gets painful because the skin can't pull back all the way. I looked it up and think it might be a tight frenulum. The pictures I found online match exactly what's going on with me. Would surgery be the right fix for this?
It's possible you have a tight frenulum, also known as frenulum breve, which can cause pain during sexual activity and difficulty retracting the foreskin. While a surgical procedure, known as frenuloplasty, might be an option to lengthen the frenulum, it's best to discuss your concerns and potential treatment options with a doctor. They can properly assess your condition and determine the best course of action for you

I've been dealing with a paper cut on my foreskin. I went to see a general physician and took some medication. It seemed to be getting better for a while, but now it feels like it's come back. Im really worried about why it's not healing properly. Could this be a sign of something more serious, and what should I do next?
it has to heal completely ,you shouldn't stretch till it heals, if it's minor injury it will heal without any scar formation , don't have sexual intercourse till it heals , only after complete heal involve in sexual activities.

The head of my penis is super sensitive and hurts when I touch it, especially near where the secretion comes out. There's also a vein attached to the head that makes it impossible to pull back the foreskin, so I'm scheduled for surgery. I'm wondering if there's any way to reduce the sensitivity of the penis head after the procedure

Since you're scheduled for surgery, it's good to discuss potential ways to manage sensitivity after the procedure with your doctor. Here's some general information that might be helpful:
