Question

I'm really struggling with something personal and could use some advice. I find that I'm not getting erections with my wife, but I do with other women. It's been bothering me a lot, and I'm really curious about what might be causing this. Do you think it's something that can be worked on or improved? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Question

I've been having some trouble down there lately and it's starting to worry me. I've got these cuts on the inner joints of my penis, and it's making it really tough to pull back the skin. There's this big scar that's sometimes bleeding, and each time I pull the skin back, this white stuff builds up and I have to wash it away. This has been going on for about four days now. I've tried using Candid B cream, but it hasn't helped at all. I'm married, and I haven't had any unsafe sexual encounters. Interestingly, my wife's been dealing with some vaginal itching too, but she's fine now after using Candid B. Could you shed some light on what's happening with me?

Question

My foreskin doesn't retract like it should it's not super tight but still won't go back. I'd rather avoid surgery are there any medications or treatments that could help with this?
