I'm worried because my sperm liquefaction time is over an hour. Everything else in my sperm report looks normal, but I'm concerned this might be affecting my wife's ability to conceive. Do you have any advice on how I can reduce the liquefaction time?

I'm noticing some really concerning changes with my penile skin. After I masturbate, the skin on the head turns black, red, and purple, and I'm seeing several black spots even when I don't masturbate.

I'm feeling this constant pain that starts from my lower back and moves upwards, plus there's pain around my groin area. It's been pretty uncomfortable, and I'm worried because it also feels weird at the end of peeing. It kind of started with a burning sensation when passing urine and semen. I tried some temporary treatments with medicines like Silofast, Gabapin NT, and Liofen Ten, which eased the pain a bit, but once I stopped, the problems came back. I've done tests like USG, Urine Test, Uric Acid Test, Creatinine Test, and a Lipid Profile, and everything seems normal except my Uric Acid level, which is at 6.39. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on and what can I do to get the relief I'm looking for. Any ideas?

It seems you may be experiencing a combination of musculoskeletal pain and urinary issues. While your tests were mostly normal, the elevated uric acid might indicate a mild predisposition to gout or other joint issues. It's important to continue addressing pain with physical therapy, manage uric acid levels, and consider further evaluation of your urinary symptoms. A follow-up with a urologist or a pain specialist may help refine the diagnosis.
