I've been dealing with some issues since I was diagnosed with a kidney stone about 10 days ago. I took Tamsin medicine on the night of January 28th, and the next morning, I fainted and had really low blood pressure, like 9060. Since then, my systolic blood pressure's been high, between 140-160, even though I stopped taking the medicine. Its concerning because I also get numbness in my arms sometimes. Could you help me figure out whats going on? Here are some of my blood pressure readings: On January 29th, at 9 am it was 9060, then 16080 at 11 am and 3 pm, and 15080 at 7 pm. On January 30th, it was 13080 at 10 am and 15080 at 8 pm. Then on January 31st, it was 12480 at 9:30 am, and on February 2nd, it was 14080 at 4:30 pm. What should I do?

It seems like you may have experienced a side effect from the Tamsulosin medication, which is commonly used for kidney stones but can sometimes cause low blood pressure and dizziness. Since you have already stopped the Tamsulosin, but are still experiencing high blood pressure and numbness in your arms, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try to manage your blood pressure by making lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and managing stress. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly.

I've noticed there's blood in my semen and it's got me a bit worried. I did a urine culture, semen analysis, and semen culture; everything came back negative except they found pus cells between 20 to 25 in the semen analysis. Is this something I should be concerned about, like an infection, or is it something normal?
Pus cells found in semen analysis indicate the presence of infection. To treat this infection, you can take antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Levofloxacin. It is important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

I've been dealing with a problem that's really starting to worry me. I'm a 23-year-old guy, and I think I've kind of overdone it with masturbation over the past few yearslike three times a day for seven years. Now I feel like my penis has lost a lot of its sensitivity, and it's causing me erectile dysfunction and making it hard to enjoy sex. I've been searching everywhere online, but I just can't find any meds or treatments that might help with this. Could you let me know if theres anything I can do about it? Maybe some medicine or something to regain sensitivity?
To help improve sensitivity and address erectile dysfunction, you can try using a topical medication called Lidocaine gel. Apply a small amount of Lidocaine gel to the tip of your penis before intercourse to help increase sensitivity. Additionally, you can also try medications like Sildenafil (Viagra) or Tadalafil (Cialis) to help with erectile dysfunction. These medications work by increasing blood flow to the penis, helping you achieve and maintain an erection. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe for you.
