I'm 94 and have been dealing with prostate issues. I've been on Urimax 0.4 mg at night for about a year. Since starting it, I've noticed that I end up needing to pee more often during the night, which means I can't really get a good night's sleep. Do you think it would be okay if I switched to taking Urimax during the day instead? I'm really hoping for a way to sleep better.

You can consult your doctor about taking Urimax (Tamsulosin) 0.4mg in the morning instead of nighttime to minimize nocturia (frequent urination at night) and improve sleep quality; however, it's essential to discuss this change with your doctor, as they may need to monitor your prostate symptoms and adjust your treatment plan accordingly to ensure optimal management of your benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

I'm having some issues with my ball sac; there are a few bumps I've noticed. It started with just one, which I tried to pop, and this hard calcium-like stuff came out, but the bump just got bigger after that. Now Im seeing a few more popping up. Any idea what could be causing this and how I can treat it?
It sounds like you may have developed sebaceous cysts or a similar skin condition on your scrotum. These bumps can occur when hair follicles or sebaceous glands become blocked. I recommend seeing a doctor to get a proper diagnosis and discuss treatment options, such as warm compresses, or in some cases, drainage or removal.

I've been struggling with tight skin under my penis shaft during sex it makes me ejaculate way too fast. I'm considering circumcision or another method to loosen the skin. How much does the procedure usually cost, and how long does recovery take? I'd like to get it done as soon as possible.
If tight skin (phimosis) is causing pain or discomfort, a doctor can suggest treatments like topical steroids or stretching exercises. If those don't work, surgery like circumcision or preputioplasty might be necessary. These procedures can take a few weeks to recover from, and costs can vary widely.
