I'm 31 and just realized I have a tight foreskin. I'm considering circumcision but wondering if it's safe at my age and what the actual benefits are. Who should I talk to about this procedure?

Circumcision at 31 to address a tight foreskin (phimosis) is generally safe and can be done for both medical and personal reasons. A urologist is the best healthcare professional to consult about this procedure

I recently had a sonography on May 2nd, 2019, which showed a 6.1mm stone in my lower ureter. For the last five days, I've had constant pain in my lower back and lower left side in the front. I've been taking cystone tablets and drinking lots of water since then. Is there a chance the stone might pass on its own, or is surgery the only option? I can urinate fine without burning, but sometimes I notice a bit of blood in my urine. What should be my next steps?

PCNL.uretroscopy are advised,kindly follow up with nephrologist.

I'm really concerned because I've been married for a couple of weeks now and I'm having trouble with intercourse. My erection just doesn't stay firm when I try to enter my partner. It'll start off fine, but then I lose it right at that moment. If I manage to get it up again, the same thing happens. I'm starting to feel really down about this and I'm worried if it's a permanent issue. Also, I'm worried my penis might not be big enough for sex, it's about 11 centimeters. Is this something that can be fixed?

Normal,nothing to worry ok.
