I've been experiencing a burning sensation in a vein in the area between my thighs, I think it's called the perineum. It started when I walked, and I thought it was because of my pubic hair, so I trimmed them. But then I noticed a thick line from my anus to scrotum, maybe a nerve, that burns whenever it's touched. Now it's really tough for me to walk. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

Im currently taking NOCULI B6 syrup to help with kidney stones. Im supposed to take 15 ml three times a day, but Im unsure about how much active ingredient is in each dose. Could you help me figure out the mg of this syrup in 15 ml? Also, I have two stones in each kidney, each measuring around 34 mm. How long should I be on this syrup to effectively treat them? And are there any potential side effects I should be aware of while taking this syrup?

I'm really concerned because I've noticed that my penis seems smaller, and the skin doesn't move back at all. Plus, there are red patches appearing at the tip that seem like an infection. Could you give me some advice on what this might be or how I could treat it?

Diagnosis* 1. *Phimosis*: A condition where the foreskin is tight and cannot be retracted over the glans penis. 2. *Balanitis*: An inflammation of the glans penis, which can cause red patches, itching, and discharge. 3. *Genital warts or other STIs*: Although less likely, it's essential to rule out other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). *Treatment Advice* 1. *Consult a urologist or dermatologist*: Schedule an appointment with a specialist to confirm the diagnosis and receive personalized treatment. 2. *Topical creams or ointments*: For balanitis, your doctor may prescribe topical creams or ointments containing ingredients like hydrocortisone, clotrimazole, or miconazole. 3. *Antibiotics or antivirals*: If an STI is suspected, your doctor may prescribe antibiotics or antivirals to treat the underlying infection. 4. *Circumcision or preputioplasty*: If phimosis is diagnosed, your doctor may recommend circumcision or preputioplasty to loosen the foreskin. 5. *Good genital hygiene*: Practice good genital hygiene by keeping the area clean, avoiding harsh soaps, and wearing loose-fitting clothing. *Additional Tips* 1. *Avoid self-medication*: Refrain from using over-the-counter creams or ointments without consulting a doctor. 2. *Practice safe sex*: Use condoms to prevent the transmission of STIs. 3. *Follow-up appointments*: Schedule follow-up appointments with your doctor to monitor treatment progress and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
