Question 1

My dad had fistula surgery 3 days ago and now there's some swelling when he walks. What can we do to reduce the swelling and help him recover better?

Accepted Answer

To reduce swelling and aid recovery after fistula surgery, encourage your dad to apply ice packs, take prescribed pain medication, and maintain good hygiene. He should also consider using a donut pillow for comfortable sitting and gradually increase his activity level as tolerated, according to Dr. Raviram S.. It's crucial to attend follow-up appointments with his doctor for monitoring.

Question 2

I've been wondering about a couple of things and I'm a bit concerned. I'm 24 and I've noticed that my penis size is less than 2 cm when not erect, and about 11 cm when it is erect. Should I be worried about this? Also, when I masturbate, I usually ejaculate within one minute, and I do this about twice a week. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Accepted Answer

Penis size can vary among individuals and what you have described is within the normal range. There is no need to be concerned about the size difference.  Ejaculating quickly during masturbation is a common issue known as premature ejaculation. To help with this issue, you can try using medications like Dapoxetine. Practicing techniques like the start-stop method or the squeeze technique may also be helpful.

Question 3

I've got a question about my ultrasound report. There's a 6mm calculus in my right lower ureter, just 1 cm away from the UVJ. I'm kind of worried about whether I really need laparoscopic surgery for this. Any advice on what I should do?
