In men, circumcision is most commonly carried out when the foreskin is tight and won't pull back (retract), which is known as phimosis. But alternative treatments, such as topical steroids, are sometimes preferred.

A high PSA level and a weak urine stream in men can be a sign of several conditions, including an enlarged prostate (BPH) or prostate cancer. It's crucial for your father to consult with a doctor or urologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I'm a 26-year-old guy and I've been really stressed about an issue I'm having. There's this membrane-like thing that seems to prevent my foreskin from pulling back properly, and it really stings if I try to force it. I came across some info online and I think it might be the frenulum. It's affecting my relationship and Im really worried about it. Is there anything I can do at home to fix it, or does it mean I need to get circumcised? Any advice would be great.

I've been noticing a white layer forming under the skin of my penis for the past week. The skin feels tighter than usual, and it's becoming difficult to pull it back. Should I be concerned about this? What could be causing it, and how do I treat it?

You may have a yeast infection or balanitis. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer twice a day for about 1-2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
