I'm a 32-year-old woman and I've been getting this burning feeling when I pee, just like the last time I had a UTI. Is there an antibiotic you could recommend for now while I'm waiting to get my urine culture results?

Urinary tract infections can be painful, but you can take steps to ease your discomfort until antibiotics treat the infection. Follow these tips:

Drink plenty of water. Water helps to dilute your urine and flush out bacteria. Avoid drinks that may irritate your bladder.Avoid coffee, alcohol, and soft drinks containing citrus juices or caffeine until your infection has cleared. They can irritate your bladder and tend to aggravate your frequent or urgent need to urinate. Use a heating pad. Apply a warm, but not hot, heating pad to your abdomen to minimize bladder pressure or discomfort.

I've been masturbating every day since I was 13, and I'm now 19. I'm worried because I feel like it's making my penis smaller. Are there any supplements, oils, or exercises that can help make it bigger? Also, what precautions should I take?

It's important to note that masturbation does not affect the size of your penis. Penis size is primarily determined by genetics and natural growth during puberty, which typically concludes in your late teens. If you're concerned about your health or body image, I recommend speaking with a healthcare professional to discuss any worries and get personalized advice.
