I found out I had a 3.5 mm kidney stone in my left kidney about a year ago, and now the pain's come back. Is drinking more water still the best way to deal with this?

View allI'm a bit worried about the curvature of my penis. I've read that castor oil massages might help with this issue. Can this really improve the symptoms or even reduce the unwanted bend? Are there other oils or any methods you'd recommend to fix this kind of problem?
Castor oil massage may potentially help alleviate symptoms of a bent penis, but it's essential to understand the underlying cause of the curvature. *Causes of Penile Curvature:* 1. Peyronie's disease (fibrotic tissue formation) 2. Injury or trauma 3. Congenital conditions

I'm dealing with this intense burning sensation in my penis all day long, especially when it's erect. It feels like the nerves are stretching too much, which makes the pain unbearable. It's gotten to the point where I can't even sit on a bike. I found out I have trichomonas from a urine test and have been on treatment for 13 days, but I'm not seeing much progress. This has been going on for about five months now, and I'm getting pretty frustrated. I'm wondering if this infection can actually last that long and how much longer it might take to see some improvement. I've done all kinds of tests like MRI, color Doppler, and still, after all this time, the trichomonas was found in my urine test. Could you give me some advice on what to do next?
I'm sorry to hear about your discomfort. Trichomonas infection can sometimes cause persistent symptoms, and it may take longer to fully clear up depending on the severity. Since you've been under treatment for 13 days without significant improvement, I recommend revisiting your doctor to reassess your treatment plan or check for any other underlying issues. Its important to ensure you're receiving the correct medication and follow-up care.

I'm experiencing something a bit unusual and I'm pretty concerned about it. Whenever I'm in the shower and I rub my scrotum, this white-colored substance gets discharged. It's been happening for about 45 months now, and it's not going away. Also, it seems to take about 23 days for this substance to build up again. There's also an unpleasant smell when this stuff comes out. What could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?
