I'm 19 and I've read that masturbation might cause DNA damage. I'm a bit worried about whether this could cause any issues for having healthy babies in the future. If I stop now, would that help?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I have a 4.2mm and 4.5mm kidney stone in my left kidney with hydronephrosis and calyceal separation of 9mm. My prevoid volume is 289cc and PVR is 20cc which they say is insignificant. Can you explain what the 9mm and 20cc measurements mean? Do I need surgery for this or can it be treated with medication?
The 9mm refers to hydronephrosis severity, and 20cc PVR is normal; stones this size often pass or dissolve with meds.
