Brief Answer:
Upload Photograph of your penis again

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .

I had gone through our previous thread on your problem .You had a dilated tributary of lateral superficial vein on penis which has no significance at all and there is nothing to be done and to be worried about .

If you have developed inflammation it could be mostly infection of Glans Penis (Ballanitis ).However I would be in a position to make precise diagnosis only on seeing recent photograph of your Penis .

Hope I have answered your query ,please revert back and feel free to ask if you have more questions,I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.

Hi Doctor,
Thanks for ur reply.
I would like to do foreskin surgery (circumcision) . Can i do in these days or need to take time.? Any suggestions plz?

Answered by Dr. Dr. P. T. Patil (1 hour later)

Brief Answer:
Circumcision is advised only when one is unable to retract foreskin .

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for follow up .

Circumcision is advised only w in a situation when one is unable to retract foreskin completely over glans penis or there is pain while retracting foreskin when the penis is in a state of Erection.

As per photographs that you have uploaded this is not the case with you hence there is no need to get circumcised .Hence I would suggest you not to go for circumcision .

Thanks and Regards.
Dr.Patil.
