View allI've noticed this tiny hard growth on my foreskin, about the size of a grain of sand. It's not itchy or burning or anything, but I'm a bit worried about what it could be. Any ideas on what this might be or if I should get it checked out?
This could potentially be a condition called Fordyce spots, which are small, raised, pale red, yellow-white, or skin-colored bumps that can appear on the shaft of the penis or the foreskin. They are usually harmless and do not require treatment. However, it is important to have it properly diagnosed by a healthcare provider to rule out any other possible conditions.

I have a 7mm lower ureteric stone and right now I'm feeling pain at the tip of my penis along with some burning sensation There's also mild pain in the upper bladder area but no kidney pain at the moment I'm taking dynapar lasix and alfoo tablets Do you think this stone can pass naturally or will I need surgery
A 7mm stone in the lower ureter might pass naturally, but it's not guaranteed. The pain you're experiencing, especially at the tip of your penis and burning sensation, could indicate a potential issue. pain can shift around as the stone moves through the urinary tract.

The tip of my penis has been swollen since this morning, and I masturbate pretty regularly. I came across some information that said it might be from excessive or forceful masturbation. The swollen part is really sensitive and it hurts whenever it touches anything. It's painful even during simple activities like walking or doing chores. Should I be concerned about this, or is it something that will just heal on its own?
The swelling and sensitivity at the tip of your penis could be due to irritation, inflammation, or minor trauma from excessive or forceful masturbation; apply ice packs to reduce swelling, avoid further irritation
