I have a 2 mm renal calculus and I'm not sure what that exactly means. Is it the same as a kidney stone and does it need surgery to remove? Can medicines help treat it instead? What precautions should I take to manage this condition?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, 2 mm calculus is a kidney stone; usually passes with fluids and meds—surgery is rarely needed.

View allMy foreskin doesn't fully cover the head of my penis about 11.5cm is always exposed whether it's erect or not. It's been like this for years without any issues, but I recently read about paraphimosis and now I'm worried if I have it. Also, what exactly is circumcision surgery and would I need it
Paraphimosis is a urologic emergency where the foreskin, once retracted, cannot be returned to its normal position, leading to a tight band around the glans of the penis. It's a medical condition primarily seen in uncircumcised or partially circumcised males

I've been having this issue where after I ejaculate, I get a burning sensation and it feels kind of weird inside my penis. It doesn't happen every time, but even when it's not burning, there's this strange feeling that lingers for a while after. I'm a bit worried about what this could mean. Do you have any idea what's going on or how I can fix it?
When you experience a burning sensation inside your penis after ejaculation, it could be due to inflammation or infection in the urinary tract or prostate. I recommend you to take a course of antibiotics like Ciprofloxacin to treat any possible infection. Additionally, you can take Ibuprofen for pain relief and to reduce inflammation. Make sure to drink plenty of water to help flush out any bacteria. If the symptoms persist, it is important to consult a doctor before starting any new medication.
