is vasectomy surgery safe and are there any side effects i should worry about in the future
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Vasectomy is a safe and effective surgery for male birth control. While serious complications are rare, some individuals may experience side effects like pain, swelling, or infection in the days or weeks following the procedure. Long-term risks are also relatively low, but can include post-vasectomy pain syndrome or, in rare cases, a sperm granuloma.

View allI'm really concerned because it seems like the skin on my penis is growing and closing over the top. There are also a few cuts, and the skin doesnt move down like it used to, which is making things really uncomfortable. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight and cannot be fully retracted over the head of the penis. This can lead to cuts and difficulty retracting the foreskin. I recommend using a topical steroid cream such as Betamethasone 0.05% to help reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the tight area twice a day for several weeks. If the condition does not improve or if you experience worsening symptoms, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm experiencing some itching in the inner tip area of my penis, and it's been going on for a couple of weeks now. I've also noticed some redness on the skin at the back. What could this be, and should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for about 2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to help with the healing process. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been having issues with frequent urination lately and my test results showed low creatinine levels and borderline uric acid. I also have phimosis which I plan to get surgery for soon, but right now I really want to figure out what's causing the constant need to pee. Could this be related to my creatinine levels or something else?
Frequent urination may be due to infection, bladder issues, or other causes—not directly linked to low creatinine—urology review advised.
