I've been diagnosed with venous leak and heard penile implants might be the only solution are there other treatments or methods to fix this without surgery? Really worried about going under the knife and looking for alternatives
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Other options include PRP, shockwave therapy, and vacuum devices—implants are for cases unresponsive to all treatments.

View allI'm worried about my sex stamina because it seems really low, and I feel like I'm not satisfying my wife. Also, my penis size is small, and I'm concerned that's part of the problem. What can I do to improve our sex life?
It's important to remember that sexual satisfaction involves emotional connection, communication, and mutual understanding, not just physical factors. If you're concerned about stamina or size, consulting a healthcare provider can help address any underlying issues and explore options like lifestyle changes, counseling, or treatments that may improve your confidence and performance.

Just found out I have a 1.2mm kidney stone and my doctor recommended surgery. Is there any way to treat this with just meds or do I really need the surgery?
NO NEED OF SX.

I'm having this weird cold chill sensation at the tip of my penis every now and then. My urine and STD tests came back normal, which is a relief, but I'm still bothered by this feeling. I've been taking meds for angular stomatitis, and Matilda forte for some rare penis numbness I'd occasionally get when sitting cross-legged for too long, but the numbness has been improving. The chillness is super irritating, and it's hard for me to describe it properly to my GP. I noticed if I drink a couple of glasses of water or wash the area with warm water, it might get a bit better or just disappear, not totally sure. I have this theory that these sensations started after I was on some meds for a minor skin infection, and had to suddenly stop them when I was told to just drink a lot of water, which I never felt this way before. Could you help me figure out whats going on?
