I'm a bit worried about some results I got from an ultrasound. It mentioned something called hydronephrosis on the right side, but it says the corticomedullary differentiation is okay on both sides. It also notes that the cortical parenchymal thickness is normal. There's a small calculus, like 9 mm, in the lower part of my left kidney. I'm not really sure what all this means. Should I be concerned about the hydronephrosis or the stone? Could this lead to something serious?

I'm experiencing this constant burning and heating sensation down there, and it's really bothering me. My ultrasound report mentioned something about "subtle mucosal irregularity in the trigone region" of my urinary bladder. I've been trying to drink more water, but it doesn't seem to help the pain at all. What could be going on, and what should I do next?

The symptoms you are experiencing could be due to a urinary tract infection or inflammation in the bladder. To help alleviate the burning sensation, you can take an antibiotic like Ciprofloxacin. Additionally, you can take Phenazopyridine. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm recently married and we're thinking about having a baby. But I'm a bit worried because my penis is only around 2 to 2.5 inches when not erect and grows to about 4 inches during intercourse. The foreskin feels really tight, which makes things uncomfortable, and I notice my erection doesnt last long. I tried using coconut oil, and while it helped a bit with penetration, Im still left feeling not fully satisfied. Also, the fluid seems to come out too quickly after ejaculation. Is all this normal? Are there lotions for tight foreskin or is it okay to use oil on the penis? I'm looking for some advice on these concerns.
