My foreskin won't pull back whether I'm hard or soft should I see a dermatologist or a urologist for this? Also, if surgery is needed, how long does recovery usually take?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
You should see a urologist for a non-retractable foreskin (phimosis). If surgery like circumcision is needed, recovery usually takes 1–2 weeks with minimal downtime.

I'm wondering about the safety of anal sex when done with just my wife and if there's any risk involved with ejaculating inside. Could you share some advice on this?
Hello, engaging in anal sex with a single partner, like your wife, can be safe if done carefully. Use proper lubrication to prevent injury, and ensure hygiene to minimize the risk of infections. Cumming inside is generally fine if both partners are free of infections, but open communication and consent are key.
