My penis size is very small and thin only 3.5 inches when erect. I really want to increase it. Does jelqing actually work? Also, does low testosterone affect size? And if there's a hormone imbalance, is it possible to grow my penis without surgery?

There's no scientific evidence that it works, and it might cause side effects like pain, irritation, and bruises. Rarely, jelqing can cause curving of the penis or erectile dysfunction. Talk to a doctor or sex therapist before you try jelqing or any other technique you find online

I'm 21 and have been masturbating since I was 16, but didn't know the foreskin was retractable until recently. Now when I do it, I pull my skin back to the ridge, but I've never really been able to ejaculate fullyit just sort of dribbles out. Also, I've noticed my penis has a slight left bend from the base when erect. I think that might be due to how I wore pants as a kid. Is there a way to actually shoot sperm, or is there something wrong with what I'm doing?
You may have a condition called phimosis, which is when the foreskin is tight and cannot be fully retracted. This can sometimes affect ejaculation. I recommend you try using a topical steroid cream like Betamethasone to help loosen the foreskin. As for the slight curvature of your penis, it is likely not related to your pant wearing style and is quite common. To improve your chances of ejaculating, you can try using medications like Sildenafil before sexual activity. If these issues persist, it would be best to consult with a urologist for further evaluation and management.

I've had a 12mm kidney stone that showed up on a CT scan on 8417, and although I didn't have issues with it at first, I've been dealing with constant back pain for the past three days, especially after eating or drinking anything. I thought it might be muscle pain and took ibuprofen, but that only made things worse. Last week, I felt nauseous and vomited for three days straight, and while I haven't vomited since 9617, the nausea is still hanging around. I'm starting to worry and wonder if it's time to see a doctor or head to the ER. Is the ER the best choice in my situation?
Patient may require surgery since the stone size is 12mm, surgery opinion for further management.
