I'm dealing with an ongoing infection under my foreskin and on the top of my penis. I've been seeing a dermatologist for a couple of months, and while it got better at first, the infection hasn't completely gone away and seems to have gotten worse again. Should I stick with the dermatologist, or is it time to see a urologist? Any advice on what I should do next?

Last night I was having intercourse and somehow ended up doing it between his legs. I felt a burning sensation and when I woke up this morning, I noticed two burns on the head of my penis. Ive been using aloe vera gel for now but I'm a bit worried. What could this mean and what should I do next?
You may have experienced some irritation or friction burns during intercourse. To help with the healing process and reduce discomfort, you can continue using aloe vera gel. Additionally, you can also consider using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid any further irritation until the burns have healed. If the burns worsen or do not improve, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

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.
