I've been diagnosed with chronic non-bacterial prostatitis and urinary bladder wall thickening of 7mm. Are there any medications that can help treat these conditions or is surgery an option for prostatitis? Would surgery provide a permanent solution for these issues?

For chronic non-bacterial prostatitis, medication is the primary treatment option, although surgery might be considered in specific cases. Bladder wall thickening, however, is a different issue and requires separate evaluation and treatment. There is no guarantee of a permanent cure, but with appropriate management, symptoms can be effectively controlled.

I've been dealing with para phimosis, and it's got me worried about whether I'm leaking inside my wife's vagina during sex. Even after we're done, I notice some leaking. Could this affect her chances of getting pregnant? I'm also pretty anxious about the idea of getting circumcised. What should I do?

I have a cyst in my scrotum and I'm really worried about it. Are there any other treatment options besides surgery that might help? I'd prefer to avoid an operation if possible. What can I do to manage it or make it go away?

Generally, these cysts don't cause any symptoms. However, they may cause feelings of heaviness or a dull ache in the scrotum. There are no known risk factors for cysts, and they rarely require treatment. In cases where cysts cause symptoms, such as pain, surgery may be recommended.
