my foreskin is really tight at the tip and it's causing discomfort is there any treatment for phimosis other than surgery what options do i have
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin can't be pulled back from the head of the penis. It's normal in babies and small children, and they usually grow out of it. It can also be caused by infections, scar tissue, and skin diseases, and may need to be treated with steroid cream or surgery

View allI've noticed these red dots appearing on the head of my penis, and they tend to vanish after a couple of days only to come back again. It's weird because when they show up, I get a mild burning feeling, but there's no itching. Do you have any idea what might be causing this cycle of disappearing and reappearing red dots?

I'm 33 and dealing with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. I have urethra pain, a weak urine stream, incontinence, and feel like my bladder never fully empties. I've been taking Tab Alfoo and Urotone for 20 days but barely see any improvement. Is surgery the only way to treat BPH? How can I manage this long-term without stressing too much about it?
While you're young for BPH, it's not unusual to experience its symptoms. Surgery isn't the only treatment option, and there are ways to manage it long-term without excessive stress. Medications, lifestyle adjustments, and proactive monitoring can significantly improve your quality of life
