I'm a virgin and my penis is 4 inches long, and it's not circumcised. I'm kinda worried about whether that's enough to satisfy a partner. Also, I don't really shave or trim my pubic hair. Is shaving or trimming something that's necessary? Would love some advice.

The typical erect penis is usually 5 to 6 inches long with a circumference of 4 to 5 inches. There's more variation in the size of flaccid penises. Some guys are genuinely smaller than that. In rare cases, genetics and hormone problems cause a condition called micropenis -- an erect penis of under 3 inches. Sometimes Peyronie's disease can reduce a guy's size. Losing weight will reveal more of that hidden shaft that's buried beneath belly fat. It doesn't actually increase your size, but it will look that way...

I've been having this pain on the left side of my abdomen for about two weeks now. Initially, a sonography showed a small prominence in my left renal pelvis, but then I had a CT scan and the results came back normal. A week after that, I started experiencing mild pain in my left bladder and testicles. The doctors treated me for a stone, but the pain in my testicles is still there. They ordered another sonography, and this time the report showed an extra renal pelvis. I'm just really confused and worried about what all this means. What should I do next?

The itchy rash around your wound could be a sign of an allergic reaction, infection, or skin irritation. Here are some possible causes: *Possible Causes* 1. *Contact dermatitis*: An allergic reaction to a substance, such as soap, lotion, or bandages, can cause a rash and itching. 2. *Infection*: Bacterial, fungal, or viral infections can cause a rash, itching, and delayed wound healing. 3. *Eczema or atopic dermatitis*: Pre-existing skin conditions can cause a rash and itching around the wound. 4. *Irritation from wound care products*: Harsh chemicals or fragrances in wound care products can irritate the skin. *Recommendations* 1. *Consult a doctor*: Show your wound and rash to your doctor to determine the cause and best course of treatment. 2. *Keep the wound clean*: Continue to clean the wound with mild soap and water. 3. *Apply a topical cream*: Your doctor may prescribe a topical cream or ointment to reduce itching and inflammation. 4. *Avoid scratching*: Scratching can further irritate the skin, delay wound healing, and increase the risk of infection. *When to Seek Immediate Attention* 1. *Increased redness or swelling*: If the rash or wound becomes increasingly red, swollen, or painful. 2. *Pus or discharge*: If you notice pus or discharge from the wound. 3. *Fever*: If you have a fever above 100.4F (38C). 4. *Worsening symptoms*: If your symptoms worsen or don't improve with treatment.

I'm a bit worried about some results I got from an ultrasound. It mentioned something called hydronephrosis on the right side, but it says the corticomedullary differentiation is okay on both sides. It also notes that the cortical parenchymal thickness is normal. There's a small calculus, like 9 mm, in the lower part of my left kidney. I'm not really sure what all this means. Should I be concerned about the hydronephrosis or the stone? Could this lead to something serious?

That Hydronephrosis could be due to Renal calculus and 9mm stone is significant and needs surgery,visit Urologist for appropriate management and also consume more water
