I'm dealing with a burning sensation after ejaculation, and it's pretty concerning. I had a urine test and sonography done last week, and the urologist said everything looked normal and not to worry. I followed his advice and treatment, but I'm still having the same issue. What could be causing this, and what should I do next?

It's not at all unusual to have a burning sensation with urination immediately or shortly after ejaculation - especially if you ejaculated more than once. It usually just means that the urethra is irritated by the force of those ejaculations. It also leads to the desire to urinate.

I'm really worried because I've been diagnosed with a varicocele grade 3, and my right and left testis seem to be normal. According to the doctor, the veins are dilated and measure 3 mm at rest. My semen analysis shows sperm motility is only 18, while it should be 50 or more. The doctor mentioned that my infertility might be due to this varicocele issue. Could this really be affecting my fertility, and what are my options?

With a Grade 3 Varicocele diagnosis, characterized by dilated veins measuring 3mm at rest, and low sperm motility of 18%, your doctor's assessment that the varicocele is likely contributing to your infertility is reasonable; consider consulting a urologist or andrologist to discuss surgical options, such as varicocelectomy, to repair the varicocele and potentially improve sperm motility and overall fertility.

I'm really concerned because while I was masturbating, my foreskin's seal broke, and it started bleeding. It's not bleeding now, but it's pretty painful and hard to pull back. I'm struggling to clean it because of the pain. I'm also worried I won't be able to have sex with my girlfriend until it heals. I've just been rinsing it with water for now. Do you think this is serious? How can I make it heal faster, and once it does, will I be okay to have sex again? I'm pretty worried about this situation and would really appreciate some advice.

Sounds like you may have experienced a tear in your foreskin, which can be quite painful. To help with the healing process and reduce pain, you can apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen to manage the pain and inflammation. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent infection. Once the tear has healed, you should be able to resume sexual activity with your girlfriend. However, it's important to give it time to heal properly before engaging in any sexual activity to avoid further injury or discomfort. If the pain persists or if you notice any signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, or discharge, it's important to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm thinking about getting circumcised because my foreskin is becoming an issue when I'm trying to clean my penis. Do you think this is a good idea?

Circumcision can be a good choice for some men, especially if there are ongoing issues with hygiene or foreskin-related problems such as phimosis. Consulting with a urologist is the best course of action to help you make an informed decision tailored to your specific needs and concerns. They can provide a full assessment and ensure that circumcision is the appropriate choice for your situation.
