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.

I'm 58 and have been married for over 30 years but dealing with a tight foreskin that won't retract, causing pain when forced. Sex is still possible with the foreskin, though it's affecting my sexual life. We have two healthy kids, but now I'm wondering if circumcision is needed at my age, especially since I've had type 2 diabetes and been on insulin for 20 years. What's your advice?
Maintaining good hygiene of the penis is very important if you are suffering from phimosis. Good hygiene practices help wash off the dirt and sweat and help in preventing the growth of microbes. The glans and the foreskin should be washed and dried gently. Cotton wipes and swabs can also be used for the purpose. This will prevent further worsening of the condition.However, if you are facing a lot of problems in your sexual life because of phimosis, consult a specialist
