Question

I don't usually masturbate regularly, but when I do, I end up with this annoying pain in my lower back that sticks around for like a week or more. If I happen to do it again before the pain goes away, it just gets worse. The pain's really bothersome, making it tough to walk or even lie down comfortably. I'm thinking it might have something to do with my prostate gland, but I'm not really sure. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

Question

I've been dealing with this issue where my foreskin sticks to the glans, and I've noticed there's some whiteness on the glans too. The skin doesn't retract when I have an erection. It used to not retract at all, but I've been gently trying to retract it in warm water, and now it retracts a bit more, but only up to about 25. I really want to avoid circumcision if there's another solution, even if it takes a while. Are there any topical creams or treatments you could recommend?

Question

I'm currently weighing 67 kg and have been on the AKT4 kit for about a month now, taking it every day. I recently went through the guidelines and noticed that the amounts of ethambutol and isoniazid I'm getting are lower than what's recommended for my weight. Specifically, it seems like my dose of ethambutol is 400 mg less and isoniazid is 300 mg less than what's suggested. Should I be worried about this affecting my treatment for extrapulmonary tuberculosis in epididymitis?
