Question 1

Had URS surgery in November 2015 for stones but now after 3 months there's mild pain again. What could be causing this and are there any precautions to prevent recurrence? How quickly can stones come back after surgery?

Accepted Answer

Mild pain after URS surgery, even 3 months later, could be due to various reasons, including a new stone, residual tissue irritation, or incomplete stone removal. To prevent recurrence, focus on hydration, dietary changes like reducing sodium and oxalate intake, and addressing any underlying medical conditions. While individual recurrence times vary, some studies suggest a median time to recurrence of 12 months after initial URS and SWL procedures, with a higher rate of repeat procedures after SWL compared to URS.

Question 2

I'm feeling a bit self-conscious about my erection size, which is about 10 cm. I'm wondering if there's any realistic way to increase it significantly, maybe to something like 55.5 inches? Is this even possible or am I aiming too high?

Accepted Answer

It's important to understand that penis size can vary greatly among individuals, and factors such as genetics play a significant role. While some treatments like exercises or devices claim to help, their effectiveness is often limited. It's advisable to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice and to address any concerns you may have.

Question 3

My penis curves to the left and I'm a bit worried is this normal or could it cause problems? I'm 20 and male, and I'd like to know if there are any natural ways to straighten it without surgery. What can I do?

Accepted Answer

A mild curve in the penis, especially if it's present since puberty, is usually normal and not a cause for concern if it doesn't cause pain or interfere with sex. However, if the curve is new, worsening, or causing problems, it could be Peyronie's disease and should be evaluated by a urologist. Gentle stretching exercises or vacuum devices may help in mild cases, but avoid aggressive methods.

Is it normal for the penis to swell up after sex, even if there's no pain? How long could this swelling last before it goes back to normal?
