I'm wondering how soon I can have sex now that my kidney stent has been removed. I had a ureteroscopy and laser surgery on May 11, 2017, to take out a stone from my kidney, and they left a stent in for two weeks. It was just removed yesterday, and my urine is mostly clear now, with just a bit of blood. Can you advise me on whether it's safe to resume sexual activity and if there are any precautions I should take?

After the removal of your kidney stent, its generally safe to resume sexual activity once any discomfort or bleeding has subsided and you're feeling comfortable. However, it's important to listen to your bodyif there's still slight bleeding or discomfort, its best to wait a few more days. Always consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

View allI have multiple stones up to 6.7 mm in size do I need to take medication or is surgery necessary? Looking for advice from a gastroenterology specialist on the best way to handle this
For multiple kidney stones up to 6.7 mm, a gastroenterologist (who deals primarily with the digestive system) may not be the most appropriate specialist. Urologists, who specialize in the urinary system, are better equipped to manage kidney stones. While medication can sometimes help smaller stones pass on their own, larger stones like yours may require more intervention, potentially including procedures like lithotripsy or ureteroscopy.

I'm having a penile infection that's been troubling me for the past 20 days. I've tried applying a few creams, but nothing seems to be working. What could be causing this, and is there something more effective I should try?
This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
