I'm a 40-year-old guy, married, and I've just been told I have an STD. I'm trying to understand what symptoms to look out for in men so I can see if they match up. Is this something that'll affect me for the rest of my life? Could I actually die from this? And after getting treatment, is there a chance it'll come back? Also, can I pass it on to someone else?

I've been having this really bad pain in the glans of my penis, right when I start and finish urinating. It's like normal when I'm just going about my day, no pain or anything, but as soon as I pee, it's unbearableit makes me stop mid-flow. The pain kind of eases up during the flow but as it slows down to just drops at the end, that's when it hits me hard. It's honestly the worst pain I've felt. I had a UTI not too long ago and took some meds like Norflex, Cyclopam, and Citralka syrup, and it seemed like I was okay for a bit. Could this be related, or is it something different? I've been drinking a ton of water, but its not helping. Also, I'm not quite sure if it's truly in the glans or maybe through the urethra, but it sure feels like it's around there. Any idea what might be going on?
Since the pain has persisted and is quite severe, it would be a good idea to consult a urologist for a thorough evaluation.

My dad has 3 gall bladder stones and an enlarged prostate at 73 cc. Is surgery absolutely necessary or can he manage with just medications for now? Really worried about his condition and want to understand the options better.
For a 73 cc enlarged prostate and gallstones, surgery might not be immediately necessary for either condition, but it depends on the severity of symptoms and individual factors. Medications can help manage symptoms of both, and watchful waiting might be an option for asymptomatic gallstones. Consulting with a doctor for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan is crucial.
