I have been suffering from frequent urination for the past 6 years. All tests, including cystoscopy, have been done. An E. coli infection was detected, and my urologist prescribed medication for 3 months, but it had no effect. I am 20 years old and also have constipation and excessive gas. How can this be treated?

I have been experiencing red rashes on the penile head and foreskin, along with a burning sensation during urination for the past one month. My urine report came back normal. I initially consulted a urologist, who advised me to see a dermatologist. I have now consulted a dermatologist and started the prescribed medications (attached for your reference).

About 2.5 years ago, I had an exposure. Recently, I had a penile cyst removed by incision. I have done all STD tests, and the results were negative. Now, I notice a small white ulcer near the surgery site. Should I be worried? I sometimes experience inflammation during urination, and it looks like gamoria on the penile shaft.

I am doing gym. After workout I noticed my urine becomes hazy and it causes burning sensation in the male organ. But all urine reports are normal and kidney test report is also normal. What could be the reason?
