I'm kind of worried because for over six months now, the cover of my penis just won't open properly. I try to open it and the skin ends up with these painful cuts. This whole thing actually started about a year ago. The skin at the tip has also gotten really dry and rough. I'm 34 and unsure about what to do next. Could you give some advice on this?

I just got my ultrasound report showing a tiny kidney stone in the right middle calyx and a 6mm UVJ stone on the left side with mild hydroureteronephrosis - how serious is this? Can these stones pass naturally or will I need surgery?

Less than 10 % stones of size more than 6mm pass spontaneously... Try drinking more water.... Consult a Nephrologist.. You will medications to aid in passing the stone..

Will UTI go away on its own?

While it's possible for the body to clear a mild infection on its own in some cases, it can be very risky not to treat a confirmed UTI with antibiotics.

I'm really into fitness and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular gym workouts and a balanced diet. But I'm kind of worried about something that I haven't found a clear answer for. Does masturbation more than twice a week have any negative effects on my health? And if I do it on consecutive days, is that harmful in any way? Just trying to understand if it's affecting my fitness journey or overall health in any way.

Yes you can take no problem.
