Question

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?

that looks like venereal disease , ask your dermatologist fpr appropriate approach there will be seperate kit for each such disease u can ask for such treatment, personal hygiene is most important and refrain from sexual activity untill you are completely recovered.

Question

I've been struggling for quite a while now. I did prone masturbation for about 10 years, and I've noticed some uncomfortable changes. My penis now seems damaged. It's bent to the left, the base feels unusually smooth, it's quite small, and my erections only last a few seconds at most. I stopped the prone masturbation two years ago, hoping things would get better, but it feels like the problem is just getting worse. I'm really worried and wondering what can be done to improve my situation. Could you please offer some guidance?

Question

I've been dealing with really bad back pain and, after checking with the doctor, they found that I have a 6mm stone in my kidney pipe. Now they are suggesting a small surgery to blast the stone. Do you think that's necessary, or is there a way to manage it with just medicine? I'm a bit worried about having surgery. What would be the best approach?
