I'm really worried about some nerve damage in my penis that's happened because of too much masturbation in the past. Is there a way to heal it naturally through exercises and diet without using medicine? What steps should I take, and what should I focus on for recovery?

While it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan, you can try incorporating foods rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals into your diet to support nerve health. Foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can be beneficial. Additionally, regular exercise, such as pelvic floor exercises (Kegels), yoga, and cardiovascular workouts, can help improve blood flow and nerve function in the pelvic area. It is also important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including getting enough sleep, managing stress, and avoiding alcohol and tobacco.

My mom is 62 and diabetic recently got tested for a UTI and her report showed pus cells at 1015 but the urine culture came back negative for bacteria. She had her bladder removed a few years ago in surgery. Could the negative culture still mean an infection or what else might be causing the high pus cells?

I've been diagnosed with bilateral varicocele grade 1 on the right side and grade 2 on the left. Lately, I've noticed my testicles shrinking, along with weaker erections and lower sex drive. I've tried ayurvedic and homeopathic treatments, but I'm not sure if they're helping. What's the best way to treat this? Also, could surgery lead to fertility problems down the line?

For a bilateral varicocele with associated testicular shrinkage, weaker erections, and lower sex drive, the best course of action is to consult a urologist or reproductive endocrinologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan. While surgery is the most common and effective treatment, other options like embolization or lifestyle changes might be considered. Surgery, while generally safe, may have a small risk of impacting fertility, but this is often manageable
