Brief Answer: You are suffering form phimosis. Detailed Answer: Hello XXXX Thanks for writing to HCM From history it is clear that you are suffering form a condition called as phimosis.In this condition person is not able to retract foreskin over the glans penis. You need proper clinical examination by a surgeon. First you can apply steroid ointment like Beclomethasone four times daily for two weeks by pushing it under the foreskin. If steroid application doesn't help then you should go for circumcision (sunneth operation),in which foreskin over glans penis is surgically removed. Forceful retraction of foreskin may lead to paraphimosis.It is an emergency situation because it can compromise blood circulation. Circumcision is also advantageous due to the fact that it prevents against penile cancer. You should go for operation before the marriage. Get well soon. Hope I have answered your question. Further queries are most welcome. Take Care Dr.Indu XXXXXXX

Brief Answer: Your problem may be due to psychological causes. Detailed Answer: Hello XXXX Thanks for writing back Your problem is not due to phimosis. Not getting enough hardness may be due to psychological causes like anxiety,tension etc.You are too young to have any organic cause of problem. You should try to keep yourself busy in your job. You should avoid provocating literature,videos etc. You can also try meditation and yoga.This will help you a lot. If problem still persists then you may need psychological help.Proper counselling can be done by psychologist. Investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,penile doppler can be done if needed to exclude any organic causes. Get well soon. Hope I have answered your question. Further queries are most welcome. Take Care Dr.Indu XXXXXXX
