I've been dealing with some intense pain in my lower abdomen ever since I was told I have kidney stones a few days ago. The ultrasound showed a 4mm stone, and my doctor prescribed me meftal spas for the pain, but it's not really working for me. The pain is seriously tough to handle. Is there any other way to manage or stop this pain?

If Dolo 650 isn't effective, consider the following options:

Consult your doctor before switching medications.

You can try Crocin (paracetamol) 650mg or Calpol (paracetamol) 650mg.

If your fever is severe, your doctor may prescribe a stronger medication like Combiflam (ibuprofen and paracetamol) or Brufen (ibuprofen).

However, always consult your doctor before taking any new medication.

Additionally, ensure staying hydrated and getting plenty of rest.

I'm feeling really concerned about some symptoms. Is it possible for a burning sensation in the penis to be an initial symptom of HIV, even if I don't have any fever or other symptoms?

Initial symptoms of HIV can vary, but common ones include flu-like symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and body aches, while penis burning or urethral discharge can be symptoms of other conditions like urinary tract infections (UTIs) or sexually transmitted infections (STIs); however, some people with acute HIV infection may experience genital or anal ulcers, or urethral discharge, so if you're concerned, consult a healthcare provider for testing and evaluation.

I'm a bit concerned because this is my first time trying to have penetrative sex with my girlfriend, and I couldn't maintain an erection after getting one during foreplay. Could this be related to my masturbation habit? I've been doing it almost daily for about 10 years, so I'm wondering if that might affect things. What do you think?

It's common to experience difficulty maintaining an erection during first-time penetrative sex due to nerves or anxiety. Masturbation, especially if done frequently, can sometimes affect sensitivity or performance, but it's usually not the main cause. If this continues, consider talking to a healthcare professional to address any underlying concerns and reduce anxiety.
