I'm experiencing something odd when I go to the bathroom. Occasionally, I find myself short of breath while I'm urinating. It's not a constant issueit last happened about five months ago, and it's only occurred a few times in total. I don't have any medical history that might explain this. Could you give me some idea of what might be causing this and what remedies I might try? Also, if you think I should see a specialist, what kind of doctor would be best to consult?

Shortness of breath during urination can occasionally happen due to a vagal nerve response, anxiety, or even bladder issues. If it's infrequent and no other symptoms exist, it's usually harmless. However, consult a urologist or general physician to rule out underlying causes like prostate or cardiovascular concerns.

I'm dealing with phimosis and really want to avoid getting circumcised. I'm strictly against any surgical solutions. I'm wondering if there are any natural remedies that could help me out? Or maybe some kind of steroid ointment or exercises that might work?

You can consider non-surgical treatment options for phimosis, such as topical steroid creams like betamethasone valerate (0.05-0.1%) applied 2-3 times a day for 4-6 weeks, gentle manual stretching exercises, or natural remedies like coconut oil, tea tree oil, or aloe vera gel,
