I'm really worried about my dad. He had an abdomen scan and the results mentioned grade 1 prostatomegaly. What does that actually mean? Should we be concerned or is it something common? Could you help me understand this a bit more?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Grade 1 prostatomegaly indicates a mildly enlarged prostate (1-30% enlargement). It's generally not serious, but requires monitoring to prevent progression to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or prostate cancer. Consult a urologist for guidance.

My penis curves to the left and it's been bothering me. Are there any non-surgical options like traction devices that can help straighten it? What would you recommend trying first?
For penile curvature, a common non-surgical approach is penile traction therapy, which uses a device to gently stretch the penis and potentially help straighten it. While many traction devices are available, starting with a device that offers gentle and consistent stretching is generally recommended.
