There is no cure for Overactive Bladder. But, there are effective ways to manage it. These include behavioral treatments, lifestyle changes, medications, and sometimes surgery. OAB can happen for several reasons. Sometimes treating the underlying cause of your OAB can help your symptoms.

I'm really worried because I've noticed the hole in my penis seems to be getting larger, and I think it might be because Ive been masturbating a lot. Is there anything I can do to get it back to its original size?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition known as urethral meatal stenosis, where the opening of the urethra becomes enlarged. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment. In some cases, a topical steroid cream may be prescribed to help reduce the size of the opening. Additionally, if the enlargement is causing any discomfort or issues with urination, a surgical procedure called meatoplasty may be recommended to repair the opening of the urethra.

I'm really confused about my recent health diagnoses and I hope you can give me some guidance. I was told I have Herpes simplex igg with a score of 2.78, but I haven't noticed any pimples, scars, or redness anywhere around my genitals or face. However, I've been experiencing tickling sensations in my penis and saw blood in my semen during intercourse. Alongside this, I've been diagnosed with chlamydia and took the meds my doctor prescribed, but I'm still noticing a cloudy liquid discharge from time to time. The burning sensation is gone, but I'm not sure what steps I should take next to deal with herpes. Any advice on how to manage or understand these symptoms better?

For the treatment of herpes simplex virus infection, you can consider taking antiviral medications such as Valtrex or Acyclovir. These medications can help in reducing the frequency and severity of herpes outbreaks. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to determine the most appropriate medication and dosage for your specific condition. Additionally, practicing safe sex and maintaining good personal hygiene can also help in managing herpes outbreaks.
