I'm wondering about how often it's okay to masturbate. I've been doing it three times a day and I'm not sure if that's too much or if it's alright. Is it healthy to keep up this frequency?

I've been using candid B cream and taking itraconazole 200mg for balanoposthitis on my genitals. Is this the right treatment plan? I'm a bit worried if it's effective or if I should be doing something different.

I've been dealing with this burning sensation in my penis and anus for over a month, and sometimes it's painful. Most times, it's either one or the other, but occasionally it's both. I also notice a bit of pain when I pee. My GP checked me out, said it might be a prostate issue, and all the STD tests came back negative. He prescribed me cipro for 10 days, but it doesn't seem to be helping. I'm really concerned and would appreciate some guidance. What should I do next?

That could be microbial infection,do not neglect, visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management and maintain personal hygiene.

Why do I get frequent urinary tract infections?

Recurrent UTIs (RUTI) are mainly caused by reinfection by the same pathogen. Having frequent sexual intercourse is one of the greatest risk factors for RUTIs. In a subgroup of individuals with coexisting morbid conditions, complicated RUTIs can lead to upper tract infections or urosepsis.
