Why is my foreskin not moving properly?

Patient's Query

Foreskin is not moving fornt and back

Answered by Dr. Madhu Sudan

Foreskin not moving back and forth easily can happen due to a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to retract. It can be caused by inflammation, infections, or simply a naturally tight foreskin. In fact, the good news is that there are ways to manage this. You can try gentle stretching exercises or consult a sexologist who may suggest creams or, in some cases, a minor procedure called circumcision. It's important to address this issue to prevent any complications.

I have like red dot on my ball looks like wart now sore

Male | 43

You probably have a red dot that resembles a wart on your private area and is now painful. This might be due to a viral infection known as "genital warts". It is very necessary to not scratch it as this will make the infection spread. Both diagnosis and treatment should be done by a dermatologist. Warts can be removed with medicines or procedures such as freezing or laser therapy.

Skin atrophy is the thinning of the skin and it can happen for different reasons like aging, steroid abuse, or some medical conditions. Skin atrophy is the major issue and it is necessary to use gentle lotions and creams to keep your skin moisturized to solve it. Refrain from harsh chemicals and cover your skin from the sun. Eating a balanced meal full of vitamins and minerals can also help your skin. Always bear in mind that the major reason for taking good care of the skin is for the overall well-being of the body.

White bumbs and scrotum in my testies and iam suffering with alergy?

Male | 21

white bumps on your scrotum could be caused by a few things, such as a fungal infection, irritation from soaps or laundry detergents, or even a skin condition like eczema. It's essential to have it checked out by a sexologist to get a proper diagnosis. In the meantime, try to wear loose-fitting cotton underwear, avoid harsh chemicals on your skin, and keep the area clean and dry. If there's any itching or discomfort, over-the-counter anti-itch creams may provide some relief.
