Lot Of Weight Gain, Developed A Belly Button Hernia, Penis Sucked Inward. Should He See Doctor ?

I am concerned about my husband. He has gained a lot of weight. He has difficulty going to the bathroom. He sits and when he gets up if he doesn't run he will wet himself. He says the stream is week and sprays different directions. With the weight gain he has developed a belly button hernia. His penis is almost inverted sucking inward. He will not go see about it. It seems like to me his sack is enlarged, but he says it is cause he is fat. Should he get to the doctor?

Hi, welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it is not due to his over weight, it may be the filariasis of the penis, and scrotum and also may contain hypo spadias,(opening under the penis) or adhesion of the prepuce to the glans.
He may require to have release or correction of the external urethral opening. so i advise you to consult a urologist for diagnosis and treatment.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
