ASK THE SEXPERT
DR MAHINDER WATSA

1 If the joint of the penis and foreskin is torn, approximately how many days does it take to heal? I’m really tensed and in a lot of pain what should I do?

Healing may take 10 - 12 days. However it’s more important how you are going to prevent it happen again. You could use a condom for a couple of month if you are not doing so.

2 I am 72 years old and cardiovascular issues. I had got stents 10 years back and have been on medication to keep my cholesterol in check. I have also been on blood thinners for some time. For the last two years, I am suffering from erectile dysfunction and low sexual desire. I want to know if my condition is because of my age or the cardiac medication that I am on. Also, what kind of treatment can help my condition? I feel very embarrassed and want a solution for my problem at the earliest.

Your problem is a combination of both, coupled with anxiety. For intercourse, take the opinion of the cardiologist to be certain that it is safe for you. Also, check if it is safe for you to masturbate. I feel you can do both. Meet a sexpert who can help you further with your issue.
