I'm 17 and I've been wondering if masturbating could be bad for my health. Also, if I ever feel weakness, what should I do about it?

My friend mentioned that he feels a burning sensation when he pees, especially towards the end. I recently gave him oral sex even though I had a cold and an itchy throat, and I also had a cough drop in my mouth at the time. Could that be causing his problem? What might be going on, and is there something he can take to feel better?

It sounds like your friend may have a urinary tract infection (UTI) which can cause a burning sensation during urination. He can take an over-the-counter medication called Phenazopyridine (brand name Pyridium) to help relieve the burning sensation. However, it is important for him to also see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment, as UTIs can sometimes require antibiotics for complete resolution.

I've been dealing with some lower back pain, and my doctor prescribed me Zerodol SP to take for two days. I took the pill after eating some fruits and salads, and now I'm a little worried if that might be an issue. Also, I've been on Zifi AZ, which is cefexime and azithromycin, for a urinary tract infection at the same time. Is it okay to take these meds after having fruits and salads, or should I be doing something differently?

No there is no any complication,you can follow your doctors advice,consume more water upto 4L in a day and take adequate rest
