I'm really worried and need some advice. Out of nowhere, a big bump or pimple showed up on the shaft of my penis, and it's causing a lot of pain whenever something touches it. Could you please help me understand what's going on? Is this something serious? I'm quite concerned.

It sounds like you may be experiencing an inflamed or infected pimple on your penis shaft. This can be caused by various factors such as poor hygiene, friction, or a bacterial infection. To help reduce the pain and inflammation, you can try using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin and keeping the area clean and dry. If the pain persists or if you notice any signs of infection such as pus or increasing redness, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm wondering if it's safe to use almond oil on the penis. Does it actually have any benefits, especially when it comes to growth? Would love some guidance on whether this is a good idea or if there are any risks involved.

Applying almond oil to the penis is generally safe for moisturizing the skin, but it does not promote growth or increase size. Be cautious to avoid irritation or allergic reactions, and remember that no oil or cream can change the natural size of the penis.

My dad just had an ultrasound done, and they found an 11 mm stone in his right kidney. He's not feeling any pain or discomfort right now. Should we be considering surgery, or are there medications that might help with this? What do you think?

11mm is a big stone. It is unlikely to pass on its own. Better to get it removed

I'm a bit worried because my doctor just prescribed me Urimax 0.4 tablets, but I know it's typically meant for men. Can women safely take it too? Are there any side effects I should be aware of?

Urimax 0.4 mg is commonly prescribed for men to manage symptoms of an enlarged prostate, but it can also be prescribed for women in certain cases, such as for treating urinary symptoms related to bladder issues. However, it is important to follow your doctor's instructions. Potential side effects may include dizziness, headaches, or gastrointestinal disturbances, so it's essential to monitor for any changes. Always consult your doctor if you experience any discomfort.
