Is it normal to have no bacteria present if there's a history of urine infections? I've had kidney stones last year and have had urine infections 2 or 3 times. Should I be worried or is this within the normal range?

Based on your history of recurrent urine infections and a kidney stone last year, it is important to monitor your urine parameters closely. A normal urine test should not show any bacteria present. To prevent further infections, you can consider taking cranberry supplements or D-mannose powder to help maintain urinary tract health. Additionally, you can ask your doctor about prescribing you with a low-dose antibiotic such as Nitrofurantoin to take after intercourse or as a prophylactic treatment. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor your kidney health and prevent future complications.

I just experienced some swelling on my penis after masturbating about 4 or 5 times in a row. It's really worrying me, and Im not sure what to do. Could you give me some advice?
You may be experiencing inflammation or irritation from excessive masturbation. I recommend taking a break from any sexual activity to allow your body to heal. You can also try using an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory cream like ibuprofen gel applied to the affected area to reduce swelling and discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent any further irritation. If the swelling persists or worsens, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
