I'm trying to understand more about my urine culture report that showed an E. coli infection. I'm a bit stressed about what this means for treatment. Do I need to take pills, or should I expect injections? Could it require hospital admission? I'd really appreciate some guidance on the diagnosis process and which type of doctor I should see. I've got my reports with me if that helps.

View allI noticed a small pea-sized cyst on my scrotum and I'm not sure what to do about it. Should I see a urologist or a general surgeon to get it checked out? Is surgery the only option or are there other ways to treat it?
See a urologist first. If it’s an epidermoid cyst or sebaceous cyst, surgery is the cure. If inflamed, antibiotics may help first.
