I'm feeling a bit concerned because I've developed multiple cysts on my left epididymis again. They were removed about three years ago, but now I can feel them coming back, and one of them is quite big, around 3cm by 2cm. It's not really painful, but there's definitely some discomfort. Should I be worried about these recurring epididymal cysts, and what might be causing them to grow back?

CT Value in COVID-19 RT-PCR Test

Interpretation

CT value: Cycle Threshold (CT) value represents the number of cycles needed to detect the virus.

Value of 21.27: A CT value of 21.27 indicates a relatively low viral load.

Implications

Infectivity: A lower CT value (like 21.27) may suggest a higher infectivity.

Treatment and isolation: Follow local health guidelines for COVID-19 treatment and isolation.

Next Steps

Consult a healthcare professional: Discuss your test results with a doctor to determine the best course of action.

Follow-up testing: Schedule follow-up tests as recommended by your healthcare provider.

I'm just kind of curious, how often is it considered safe to masturbate in a week? Like, I dont want to overdo it or harm myself in any way. Is there such thing as a limit I should be aware of? Hope you can help clarify this for me.

There is no strict "limit" for masturbation; it varies from person to person. Generally, it is safe if it doesn't interfere with your daily life, relationships, or responsibilities. Moderation is key, and if you feel any physical discomfort or emotional distress, its worth discussing with a doctor.

I'm feeling really anxious about my upcoming inguinal scrotal surgery next week. I recently went to see a pulmonary specialist for some chest pain and heaviness, and they found severe restriction due to small airway obstruction during the spirometry test. The doctor mentioned it's normal, but I'm still worried. Can you help me understand if there's anything specific I should be doing or looking out for with these results before my surgery?
