Ive been experiencing this strange pain in the shaft of my penis, like its going to burst. It doesnt happen all the time, but now and then when my penis is erect. The pain seems to start from the middle and pushes out towards the sides. Any ideas on what might be causing this?

It sounds like you might be experiencing penile discomfort, possibly due to tension in the tissues or muscles during an erection. It could be related to conditions like Peyronie's disease, but I recommend seeing a doctor for an accurate diagnosis and treatment options tailored to your situation.

Found out I have a 9.2mm kidney stone near the VUJ do I really need surgery or can meds help break it down? Worried about the size and if it'll pass on its own.

A 9.2mm kidney stone at the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) is large and unlikely to pass on its own. While medication can help manage pain and potentially aid in passage of smaller stones, larger stones like yours are often best addressed surgically. A urologist can evaluate your specific situation and determine the best course of treatment, which may include procedures like ureteroscopy or ESWL.

I've been noticing something worrying with my intimate health lately. My penis starts off firm, but after a while, it becomes a bit softer, even if I haven't ejaculated yet. I'm feeling a bit embarrassed about this situation. Is there anything I can do to get it back to how it used to be? I dont have any health problems, and I exercise regularly. Any advice would be appreciated!

It's understandable that you're feeling concerned, but this can sometimes happen due to stress, fatigue, or even mental factors like performance anxiety, even if youre physically healthy. Its important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, reduce stress, and communicate openly with your partner. If it continues, consulting with a healthcare professional may help address any underlying causes.

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.
