I'm dealing with some itching under the skin of my penis head, and when I wash it, I sometimes notice white smegma. Occasionally, there's even a reddish ring under the skin. I've been struggling with this for about a year and a half now. I've visited a couple of doctors and followed their prescriptions for antibiotics and creams, but it always comes back about two weeks after I finish the medication. Do you think circumcision might be a good solution to get rid of this issue once and for all? I'm really unsure about what to do next.

I'm worried because I'm not seeing any sperm when I masturbate, and I'm dealing with a kidney stone located at the junction of my urethra and bladder. Could this stone be blocking sperm flow or affecting it somehow? What's going on here?
once stones pass the bladder neck they will come down easily through urethra,, and if you are passing urine then they is no block there. Drink plenty of urine it will push any stones (small enough to pass bladder neck), will pass through urethra

I had ZSR circumcision surgery on 22 July 2020 but the staple pin hasn't fully come off my penis yet. Trying to remove it with tools is really painful is there any home remedy or easier way to get it out without so much pain?
It's understandable that the staple pin hasn't come off naturally after 5 years. While it typically falls off within 10-14 days, it's best to consult your urologist for a professional assessment and removal, as attempting to do so at home can cause further pain and potentially complications
