Is it safe to have sex if my partner has had phimosis since birth or is surgery the only option to fix it
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, it's generally safe to have sex with phimosis, but it might be uncomfortable or painful depending on the severity. Surgery (circumcision) is a common treatment option, but it's not always necessary. Mild phimosis may not require intervention and can be managed with proper hygiene and gentle stretching.

View allI've noticed that one of my testicles, the right one specifically, seems to hang lower than it used to. I'm 21 and just had a full body check where everything seemed fine, and the doctor checked my testicles but didn't touch them, just took a good look. I hit the gym pretty regularly and wear tight shortsI'm wondering if that or the lifting might be affecting this. I also have another medical exam soon before I start work on a ship. Could this lower-hanging testicle be something I should worry about?
It's possible that lifting heavy weights or wearing tight shorts could cause some temporary changes in the position of your testicle, but if your doctor didn't find any issues during your last checkup, it likely isn't a cause for concern. However, if you notice persistent discomfort or other symptoms, it's a good idea to mention it during your next medical checkup before heading to the ship.

I'm dealing with 34 kidney stones spread across both my kidneys, each about 4 to 5 mm in size. I'm considering taking Cystone to help with this, but I'm not sure if that's the right approach. How should I go about it if it's recommended? What dosage and time frame would be best for something like this?
yes continue all the medications..

I'm a 32-year-old woman and I've been getting this burning feeling when I pee, just like the last time I had a UTI. Is there an antibiotic you could recommend for now while I'm waiting to get my urine culture results?
Urinary tract infections can be painful, but you can take steps to ease your discomfort until antibiotics treat the infection. Follow these tips: Drink plenty of water. Water helps to dilute your urine and flush out bacteria. Avoid drinks that may irritate your bladder.Avoid coffee, alcohol, and soft drinks containing citrus juices or caffeine until your infection has cleared. They can irritate your bladder and tend to aggravate your frequent or urgent need to urinate. Use a heating pad. Apply a warm, but not hot, heating pad to your abdomen to minimize bladder pressure or discomfort.
