I've been noticing that every 34 days or so, this white substance appears under my foreskin, just below the head of my penis. It smells pretty strong, and I have to clean it regularly. I usually just use water to wash it off. I'm a bit worriedcould this be some kind of infection? Is it something harmful to my penis? What should I do about it?

View allFour years ago I had a ureteroscopy to remove a 4-5mm blockage stone in my ureter. Now I'm having pain on my left side and my recent ultrasound showed a 2.5mm stone in the mid calyx of my right kidney and a 2.9mm stone in the lower calyx of my left kidney with mild pcs dilation. I really don't want another surgery are there any other treatment options for these stones? What would you suggest?
Given your history and the current situation with 2.5mm and 2.9mm stones, the most likely recommendation is to wait and monitor the stones and your pain levels. Smaller stones often pass naturally, and observing them is a good first step. If the pain becomes severe or you have signs of infection, further intervention might be necessary

I'm wondering if using coconut oil under the foreskin is a good idea for keeping things clean, especially to prevent smegma. If coconut oil isn't recommended, what other options are there that I can try? Just trying to figure out the best way to maintain hygiene down there.
Using coconut oil under the foreskin can actually lead to a buildup of smegma and increase the risk of infections. A better substitute for keeping the area clean is to use a mild, unscented soap and warm water during daily hygiene routines. Additionally, applying a thin layer of over-the-counter antifungal cream like Clotrimazole cream twice a day can help prevent smegma buildup and maintain proper hygiene.

I'm 19 and dealing with scrotal calcinosis there are about 34 medium-sized cysts and a few new ones starting to form. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? I'm really worried about it getting worse.
While scrotal calcinosis is a condition that may require surgery for definitive treatment, especially when cosmetic concerns arise, there are some alternative approaches that may be considered before surgery. These include observation, laser therapy, and cryotherapy, depending on the severity and location of the calcinosis.
