I've been reading about venous leak and I'm really worried can it be treated with pills or is surgery the only option? I've heard leaving it untreated can mess with mental health like causing anxiety or low self-esteem and I'm not sure what to do
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, venous leakage (also known as veno-occlusive dysfunction) can often be treated without surgery. Several non-surgical options are available, including medication, endovascular procedures, and other interventions. The most effective treatment plan will depend on the individual's specific circumstances and the severity of their symptoms

My foreskin only pulls back to the head of my penis should it go all the way down? It seems to be loosening slowly on its own, but is there anything I can apply or take to help it stretch more without needing surgery?
A partially retractable foreskin may improve with gentle stretching and topical steroid creams. Surgery is only needed if it interferes with hygiene or causes discomfort.

How many times should you pee a day?
Most people urinate between six and eight times a day. But if you're drinking plenty, it's not abnormal to go as many as 10 times a day. You may also pee more often if you're taking certain medications, like diuretics for high blood pressure.
