I am confused weather I have phimosis or not. also I am not comfortable to go for a checkup. I want someone to see the condition of my erected penis and let me know weather I actually have phimosis or am I normal.

Hello Jai,

These symptoms are associated with Balanitis, which often occurs due to factors like poor hygiene, fungal or bacterial infections, or skin conditions.

Treatment Options:

1. Keep the area clean using warm water
2. Avoid harsh soaps or chemicals that may cause an allergic reaction.
3. Treatments may include medication, and in some cases, circumcision may be recommended.

Hello Rajiv Ji,

Swelling in the penis can be caused by several factors, including infections, allergic reactions, or injuries. Since it started suddenly, it’s best to see a healthcare provider to get it checked and identify the exact cause.

In the meantime, avoid activities that might further irritate the area, and wear loose clothing to minimize discomfort.

Hello Ravi Ji,

Laser circumcision is a minimally invasive procedure with a typically quick recovery time of 1-3 days.

Regarding sexual health, once healed, laser circumcision should not negatively impact sexual function. In fact, some people report improved comfort. However, it’s important to wait until the area has fully healed—usually around 4-6 weeks—before resuming sexual activities.
