My husband has phimosis and we're too embarrassed to talk to our family about it. The doctor recommended circumcision can you give an idea of the total cost and what the surgery involves? Also, how long does it usually take to heal after the procedure?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Circumcision costs ₹10,000–₹25,000; involves 1-day procedure with 7–10 days of healing—consult in private for privacy.

View allI'm facing a really painful issue. Every time I have sex or my partner gives me oral, my foreskin tears, and it's really hurting a lot. It's especially painful if I try to have sex within the next day or two after it happens. It usually takes around 23 days for it to heal completely. What can I do about this, and is there a way to prevent it from happening in the first place?

I'm having a bit of an issue and I'm really concerned. During intercourse, I noticed that the foreskin on my penis gets cut at the lower inner joint. It bleeds quite a lot when it happens, although it does stop eventually. This has been worrying me since it first happened about 34 days ago. The cut is still open and in the process of healing. I'm also diabetic, which I know might make things a bit more complicated. Is this something serious? Should I be considering seeing a doctor about this?
It's important to get the cut checked by a doctor, especially with diabetes, as healing can be slower, and there's a risk of infection. If it's not healing properly or if you experience pain, swelling, or redness, please consult a healthcare professional for proper care.

I have a 6mm stone in my left upper ureter with mild hydronephrosis do I need surgery right away or is there a chance it could pass on its own with urine? What would you recommend?
A 6mm kidney stone in the ureter with mild hydronephrosis can sometimes pass on its own, but it's also possible it will require intervention. While some 6mm stones pass, a 6mm stone might be more likely to get stuck, causing pain and potentially requiring medical assistance. Hydronephrosis, the swelling of the kidney due to fluid buildup, can also be a reason to seek treatment
