I'm wondering if masturbating 5 to 6 times a month could be bad for my health. Does it have any effect on my bodybuilding efforts or my sperm count? Could it possibly lead to major issues later on? I'm really curious about whether this is healthy or if I need to change anything.

Found a 5.7 mm stone in my right distal ureter near the UV junction on a CT scan. I've passed stones before but no pain right now. Is this one small enough to pass on its own or will I need surgery?

A 5.7mm kidney stone in the distal ureter, close to the ureterovesical junction (UVJ), has a chance of passing on its own but may require medical intervention. The exact likelihood of spontaneous passage depends on various factors, including the stone's shape and composition. While you haven't experienced pain, it's essential to monitor for signs of infection or pain and consult with a healthcare professional for personalized guidance

my foreskin is really tight at the tip and it's causing discomfort is there any treatment for phimosis other than surgery what options do i have

Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin can't be pulled back from the head of the penis. It's normal in babies and small children, and they usually grow out of it. It can also be caused by infections, scar tissue, and skin diseases, and may need to be treated with steroid cream or surgery
