I'm a 21-year-old male and I've been having recurring UTIs. I had one back in January, where my abdomen scan was normal but the urine culture showed E. coli. My doctor prescribed Nitrofurantoin for 14 days along with Citralka and Meftalspas. Then in May, I got another UTI. Again, my abdomen scan was normal but E. coli showed up in the culture. This time, I was given 14 Amikacin 500 injections for a week plus Citralka. I felt fine for about 15 days, but now I'm experiencing a burning sensation when I pee. I'm really concerned and don't know what to do next. Can you help?

Consult with a urologist for a thorough evaluation. Get a urine culture with antibiotic sensitivity testing. Follow a personalized treatment plan, potentially involving a different antibiotic or longer treatment. Make necessary lifestyle changes and practice preventive measures to avoid further infections.

View allIm a 23-year-old guy dealing with something unusual lately. My left testicle feels like it's vibrating, and occasionally the right one does too. It started happening the morning after I masturbated the night before. Plus, my left testicle seems a bit softer than the right one. My penis shakes sometimes as well. Its been like this for the past four days. Sometimes everything feels normal, and Im wondering if I should be worried or if this will sort itself out. Any ideas on what might be going on?
Sounds like you may be experiencing some testicular discomfort and changes in sensation. These symptoms could be due to various reasons such as muscle spasms, nerve irritation, or even underlying medical conditions. I recommend you to take Ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours for pain relief and inflammation. Additionally, you can apply a cold pack to the affected area to help reduce any swelling or discomfort. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm experiencing some discoloration on the glans of my penis and suspect it might be balanitis. I'm just unsure if I should see a urologist or another type of specialist. Could you advise on who would be the right doctor to consult for this issue?
For balanitis, you can consult a Urologist. They can prescribe you an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole to apply on the affected area twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry is important for recovery.
