View allI've found a painless ulcer where my penis head meets the foreskin, and it's really got me worried. I haven't had any sexual encounters in the last four months, just been on my own, you know, self-masturbation. What could be causing this?
Since you're experiencing an ulcer-like lesion, its important to get a proper diagnosis from a healthcare professional. They may take a swab or perform an examination to identify any infections or other underlying conditions. If it doesnt improve or if you experience pain, discharge, or other concerning symptoms, its best to seek medical attention as soon as possible.

My penis curves to the left when it's fully erect and it makes it look shorter than it is. Is there any way to straighten it without surgery?
A slight curve in the erect penis is common and usually not a concern unless it's causing pain or difficulty during intercourse. If the curve is significant, you might have a condition called Peyronie’s disease. Non-surgical options like oral medications, penile traction therapy, or injections (like collagenase) may help—consult a urologist for proper evaluation and guidance.

I've been having back pain for a few months and an ultrasound showed a 10x9mm cortical cyst in my right kidney's lower pole - should I be worried about this? Do I need surgery for something this size or can it be managed without an operation?
Undergo CT scan with contrast to find out if cyst is complex or not . If complex u may require surgery but I’m not complex nothing to worry. Ultrasound can also specify simple cyst if done by good radiologist
