I've been dealing with this annoying pain in my right testicle, inner thigh, and lower back for almost a month now. I had a scrotal ultrasound done and it came back normal. I've also been on antibiotics and anti-inflammatory meds for about 20 days but still no relief. It gets worse when I'm sitting. Any idea what could be going on or what I should do next?

It sounds like you may be dealing with a persistent issue that could involve muscle strain, nerve irritation, or another underlying condition. Given that the ultrasound is normal, I'd suggest following up with your doctor to explore other possibilities, like pelvic floor dysfunction or referred pain, and potentially consider physical therapy or a specialist referral for further evaluation.

View allI've been dealing with some mild pain and discomfort in my perineal area for the past month. It kind of feels like something's trying to push its way out, and there's this sensation of stretching inside. I went to a urologist, but he suggested I see a neurologist instead. What could be going on with me?

My penis curves to the left and it's been bothering me. Are there any non-surgical options like traction devices that can help straighten it? What would you recommend trying first?
For penile curvature, a common non-surgical approach is penile traction therapy, which uses a device to gently stretch the penis and potentially help straighten it. While many traction devices are available, starting with a device that offers gentle and consistent stretching is generally recommended.

my urologist recommended surgery for phimosis but I'm not sure if it's the best option or if there are any side effects I should be worried about
It's understandable to have concerns about surgical options for phimosis, especially when you're unsure about the best course of action or potential side effects. Surgery for phimosis, often circumcision, is generally recommended when non-surgical treatments like steroid creams or manual stretching haven't been successful, or if the phimosis is causing significant problems like recurring infections or pain. Potential side effects of circumcision include infection, bleeding, and scarring, but these are usually manageable
