When my penis is normal size I can pull the foreskin back easily but when it gets bigger it hurts to retract it is this normal or should I use some kind of lubrication instead of surgery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If foreskin pain occurs during erection, use of steroid creams or stretching may help; surgery is considered if unresolved.

View allI have multiple cysts on my testis, including three larger ones and many smaller ones. Is there any treatment option besides surgery? Also, how can I confirm if these are actually cysts or something else what tests would be needed for that?
Yes, there are some treatment options for multiple testicular cysts besides surgery, and several tests can help confirm the diagnosis. Initially, an ultrasound of the scrotum is a good first step. In some cases, aspiration (draining the fluid) or percutaneous sclerotherapy (killing the cyst cells with an injection) might be options. Surgical removal is usually reserved for larger cysts or those causing pain or other complications

I'm dealing with a lot of discomfort because the skin at the tip of my penis doesnt retract during sex, and it ends up causing pain. Even though I dont have issues while masturbating, the foreskin just wont move back, not even a little, and its really affecting my ability to have sex. What could be going on, and what should I do about it?
It sounds like you may have a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to retract. This can cause discomfort during sex. I recommend consulting a urologist to explore treatment options, which may include topical steroids or, in some cases, a minor surgical procedure to improve the condition.

My sonography showed an enlarged prostate but the urologist in Latur is away for two days. The local family doctor prescribed urimax 0.4mg tablet. Is it okay to wait for two days before seeing the specialist? Will this tablet be enough or is surgery usually needed for this condition?
Watchful waiting is often chosen by men who are not bothered by symptoms of enlarged prostate. They have no treatment but get regular checkups and wait to see whether the condition gets worse....Medical treatment of BPH is usually reserved for men who have significant symptoms. The available drugs alpha blockers relax the smooth muscles of the prostate, and the bladder neck, which helps to relieve urinary obstruction caused by an enlarged prostate...
