The tip of my penis has been swollen since this morning, and I masturbate pretty regularly. I came across some information that said it might be from excessive or forceful masturbation. The swollen part is really sensitive and it hurts whenever it touches anything. It's painful even during simple activities like walking or doing chores. Should I be concerned about this, or is it something that will just heal on its own?

The swelling and sensitivity at the tip of your penis could be due to irritation, inflammation, or minor trauma from excessive or forceful masturbation; apply ice packs to reduce swelling, avoid further irritation

I'm really worried because I'm diabetic with an FBS of 200 and I've noticed that I'm getting sensitive areas under the foreskin, which is prominent after intercourse. I'm uncircumcised and have been using Surbraz TZ cream for about two years to help subside the cuts, but it keeps recurring. My routine urine tests always come back normal, but sometimes my wife ends up with a UTI after we've been intimate. We've tried using Zocon T, and it helps temporarily, but the symptoms keep returning. I've seen a lot of skin and VD specialists, but no one has been able to provide a solution. I understand this might be related to my diabetes, but there's got to be some kind of cure or long-term solution, right? What should I do next?

Consider consulting a urologist or a diabetes specialist for personalized guidance, as your symptoms suggest a possible connection to balanitis, a common condition in uncircumcised diabetic men, characterized by inflammation and irritation under the foreskin; in addition to managing your diabetes, practicing good genital hygiene, and using topical creams like Surfraz TZ, explore other treatment options like circumcision, laser therapy, or antifungal medications, and address your wife's recurrent UTIs through a urologist or gynecologist to prevent further complications.

I recently went to a urologist who told me my testicles are undescended and still in my lower abdomen based on an ultrasound scan. I'm 26 and worried it might be too late to fix this. Can you recommend a good doctor or hospital in Bangalore for this? Also, any idea what the surgery might cost roughly?

Surgery is the best option, we cant do anything much with medication, so go for surgery.

Can daflon 500 help with venous leakage? I'm really worried and would love some advice on whether it could improve my situation. What do you think?

Daflon 500, which contains a combination of diosmin and hesperidin, is commonly used to improve venous tone and reduce inflammation in conditions like varicose veins or venous insufficiency. While it may help improve circulation and alleviate symptoms, it is not a direct treatment for venous leakage. It's important to consult your doctor for a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan tailored to your condition.
