I've been feeling this weird tingling sensation in my urethra for a while now, but there's no UTI or any other known problem. It's not painful when I pee, and I don't seem to have any prostate issues. It usually comes when I'm trying to sleep, making me really restless, though it does go away on its own after a bit. It's kind of torturous when it's there. Do you think it could be urethral syndrome or maybe something related to nerves? Are there any meds that could help with this?

Urethral irritation usually presents in this way. To help alleviate the tingling sensation, you can try taking Flavoxate (brand name Urispas) 200 mg tablets. This medication helps to relax the muscles in the bladder and urethra, reducing the discomfort you are feeling. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication.

I have mild varicocele but not much pain do I really need surgery or can I manage without it

For mild varicoceles with minimal pain, surgery is often not necessary and management without surgery is usually possible. However, a healthcare provider should evaluate the situation to determine the best course of action, as individual circumstances and potential complications vary.

I've been diagnosed with phimosis and need surgery soon which option is safer and better, laser or ZSR? I'm really worried and want to make the right choice quickly.

Laser circumcision is actually the permanent solution for phimosis. So, if your doctor recommends you undergoing laser circumcision or stapler circumcision, be assured that it is the safest procedure and inflicts minimal pain

I'm a bit concerned after having sex for the first time this past Friday night. I've noticed some pain in my penis because the skin seems to have peeled. The front part has gotten pretty red too. The pain's a bit better than a couple of days ago, but it's still there. Do you have any advice on what I should do?

To alleviate the discomfort, apply a topical antibiotic cream, keep the area clean, and avoid further irritation if the pain persists, or you experience difficulty urinating, increased redness, or swelling, consult a urologist for further guidance.
