Question 1

Can plastic surgery help repair damaged nerves in the penis if they haven't healed on their own

Accepted Answer

Yes, in some cases, plastic surgery, particularly nerve grafting, can help repair damaged nerves in the penis if they haven't healed on their own, and can potentially restore erectile function. However, nerve damage may be irreversible in some instances, and the success of surgical repair depends on the extent and cause of the damage.

Question 2

Is it normal to have no bacteria present if there's a history of urine infections? I've had kidney stones last year and have had urine infections 2 or 3 times. Should I be worried or is this within the normal range?

Accepted Answer

Based on your history of recurrent urine infections and a kidney stone last year, it is important to monitor your urine parameters closely. A normal urine test should not show any bacteria present. To prevent further infections, you can consider taking cranberry supplements or D-mannose powder to help maintain urinary tract health. Additionally, you can ask your doctor about prescribing you with a low-dose antibiotic such as Nitrofurantoin to take after intercourse or as a prophylactic treatment. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor your kidney health and prevent future complications.
