I recently had stents placed in both my ureters and they were there for a week after my RIRS procedure. After the stents were removed, I tried to masturbate after a couple of days because I felt the urge, but I ended up having this weird experience where it felt like sperm was coming out but nothing actually did; it was just dry. Should I be worried about this or is it something that can happen?

After stent removal, it's normal to experience temporary changes in ejaculation, and the "dry" sensation could be due to inflammation, scarring, or residual swelling, so consult your urologist to rule out any complications or blockages

I'm dealing with recurring eye styes and some random skin sores, plus I've noticed there's pus behind my left ear. I read online that these could be related to HIV. Can you provide some advice or insights on what might be causing these issues?

Since the iron rod pierced your foot, it's essential to consider tetanus prevention. Tetanus is a serious bacterial infection that can enter your body through cuts or wounds, especially those exposed to dirt or soil . Given that your injury isn't deep, you'll still need to assess your tetanus vaccination status. If you've had a tetanus shot within the last 10 years, you're likely covered. However, if it's been more than 10 years or you're unsure, it's best to get a booster shot within 48 to 72 hours after the injury . To further minimize the risk of tetanus infection: - *Clean the wound*: Wash the injured area with soap and water, and dry it with a clean towel. - *Apply antibiotic ointment*: Put a thin layer of antibiotic ointment on the affected area to help prevent infection. - *Cover the wound*: Cover the injured area with a bandage or dressing to keep it clean and protect it from further irritation.

I've noticed something strange with my beard recently. Some of the hairs are turning brown and a few even light brown, which is odd because all my other body hair is still black. I first thought it was maybe because of the gel I was using, but I haven't used any for the last six months, and there's been no change. Now I'm just using oil. Any idea why this is happening and how I might be able to get my beard back to its original black color?

-It's possible that changes in beard hair color could be due to genetics, hormonal fluctuations, or even stress. Since you've already stopped using the gel and are using oil, its important to focus on overall healthadequate nutrition, stress managem

I've been dealing with pimples on my face and body, and I've heard doctors refer to it as acne. For the past two weeks, Ive been taking Hamdard Safi, and it looks like it's helping clear up my acne. However, I'm concerned because Ive read and heard from some folks, including a few doctors, that Safi might have a lot of arsenic, which could be bad for your body, especially your kidneys. Can you shed some light on whether it's actually safe to keep taking Safi?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
