I've been dealing with UTI issues again. I had one back in November 2016 and took norflox then, and it cleared up. This time, the problem started on April 3rd, and I took norflox for 5 days along with citralka syrup. It got better, but then it came back after just 2 days. Now it's continuing every day. What should I do? Is there something different I should try or be concerned about?

Recurring UTI symptoms despite antibiotic treatment, including norflox, suggest a possible underlying issue, such as antibiotic resistance, incomplete treatment, or an underlying anatomical or functional abnormality; consider consulting a urologist

Question

I'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?

Question

I'm trying to understand what's going on with some recent scan results. It mentions there's a right pleural effusion that's under 100 ml. How serious is that? Should I be worried? Also, it says there's a thick-walled urinary bladder with some post-void residue, and I'm wondering if it's linked to cystitis. Could you explain what this all means and what steps I should consider next?
