I've been experiencing something a bit odd that I'm worried about. Sometimes when I urinate, I find myself short of breath, but it doesn't happen all the time. It's only occurred about 5 or 6 times, with the last episode happening around 5 months ago. I don't have any significant medical history, so I'm unsure what's causing this. I'm curious if there might be some remedies I could try at home, or if this is something serious enough to see a doctor about. If so, could you suggest what kind of specialist I should consult? Any advice would be really helpful.

Its possible that the shortness of breath while urinating could be related to a temporary imbalance in the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary functions like breathing and bladder control. However, it could also indicate an underlying issue like a heart condition or a urinary tract issue. Since it's been infrequent and you have no medical history, its advisable to consult a general physician or cardiologist for a thorough evaluation.

I've had a hernia on the left side of my groin for a while, and recently noticed my spermatocele in the upper scrotum has gotten bigger. The hernia has been a bit painful the last few days, and the spermatocele seems to have grown around the same time. Could the hernia be causing the spermatocele to increase in size? If I get hernia surgery, will that help with the spermatocele too? Are there any non-surgical treatments for spermatocele that might help?

Apollo is best for it.

Had a circumcision surgery last Saturday on 14 April but since yesterday I noticed some pus in the wound and it hurts when I try to clean it. Started taking ceftum 500 twice a day but not sure if washing with warm water will help or make the pus worse

It's important to seek medical advice immediately if you're experiencing pus and pain in a circumcision wound. While you're taking Ceftum, it's recommended to gently clean the area with warm water to help manage the infection, but you should not scrub or use harsh soaps. Warm water can help remove debris and promote drainage, but it's crucial to follow the guidance of your doctor, who may have specific instructions for wound care after circumcision.
