I'm really concerned because a few years ago, I had a laparoscopic stent implantation done through the urethral opening when I was 21. During that procedure, they had to slightly remove the prepuce because the glans penis was completely covered since I was a kid. Only a tiny opening was there for urine. After they opened the preputial orifice, the skin was soft, pinkish-white, and super sensitive. But about a year later, I noticed a black spot there. There's no growth, it's just a spot, and I'm really confused about what it could be. Is this a lentigo or something else I should be worried about? Can you help me figure this out?

View allMy penis has always curved to the left and I recently got a penile Doppler test that showed small plaques. The doctor said surgery is the only option but only if sex is uncomfortable. I want to straighten it but I'm worried about surgery risks. Are there any other treatments like penile traction devices that could work?
dermatologist opinion for the treatment .

I'm really worried because my urine culture test showed an E. coli count of 80,000, and it's been like this for a while now. My urologist prescribed antibiotics a few months back, and after taking them for two weeks, the count went up when I stopped. The medicine was switched, but now Im seeing E. coli again. I got an ultrasound KUB which turned out normal and did semen cultures as well, which showed another infection. Even after another round of antibiotics, the infection was still there. Ive been experiencing sharp abdominal pain and sometimes in the rectum, with my urine smelling bad. Why do I keep getting these recurring infections in both my urine and semen cultures? What could be causing this, and what tests should I consider doing next?
It sounds like you're dealing with a persistent E. coli infection that may not have fully cleared despite antibiotics. Chronic or recurrent infections can be due to incomplete treatment, an underlying issue like a urinary tract abnormality, or antibiotic resistance. It's important to consider a urine culture with antibiotic sensitivity testing, possibly imaging studies beyond ultrasound (like CT or MRI), and reviewing the semen culture results to address any underlying causes. A urologist or infectious disease specialist could help explore further options.
