I'm a bit worried and need some advice. If I've already started taking Levofloxacin 250 mg, will it mess up the results of a urine culture? It's been nagging at me, and I can't stop thinking about it. Could you guide me on this?

View allI've just been told I have a small prostatic cyst that's about 6mm. Should I be worried about this? What's the typical treatment for something like this?
A 6mm prostatic cyst is generally considered small and may not be a cause for concern, as 5-8% of men have small prostatic cysts. However, it's essential to monitor it, as larger cysts can cause complications like urinary tract infections, hematuria, and voiding dysfunction. Treatment options vary depending on symptoms and cyst size. Small, asymptomatic cysts may not require treatment, while larger or symptomatic cysts may need surgical excision, transurethral cyst catheterization, or other non-surgical interventions.

I'm a bit concerned because my testicles hang very low. Is this something normal, or should I be worried about a potential problem? Have you encountered this issue before, and if its nothing to worry about, could you give me some guidance?
It's normal for testicles to hang at varying lengths due to factors like temperature, age, and individual anatomy. However, if you notice pain, discomfort, or other changes, its worth consulting a doctor for a proper evaluation. If everything else feels normal, this may just be your body's natural variation.

I'm 24 and I've been masturbating for the past six years. Lately, I've noticed that the shaft of my penis isn't as soft as it used to be. There's also this numb and itchy feeling that comes with it, and its been worrying me. I stopped masturbating for a bit to see if things would get better, but I haven't noticed any changes. Should I be talking to a dermatologist or a urologist about this?
That could be due to fungal infection usually,visit your dermatologist for evaluating any active infection and appropriate management,you can use intimate moisturizer.
