I've got a cyst in my prostate that's filled with clear fluid, and it's about 7cc in volume. I'm wondering if there's a way for it to go away with medication or if the only option is to have it removed. I'm also having trouble emptying my bladder completely in one go, but thankfully there's no pain. Can you give me some advice on what I should do next?

A clear fluid cyst in the prostate may not always require treatment if it is not causing any symptoms. However, if you are experiencing difficulty emptying your bladder, it is important to address this issue. Medications such as alpha-blockers like Tamsulosin can help relax the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate. Additionally, antibiotics may be prescribed if there is an infection present. If the cyst is causing significant symptoms and does not improve with medication, surgical removal of the cyst may be considered. It is best to consult with a urologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

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've been dealing with this ongoing issue where the foreskin on my penis gets really tender and then cracks. This seems to happen quite oftenit heals and then just cracks again. I'm getting a bit worried about it. What could be causing this, and how can I prevent it from continuing?
You may be experiencing a condition called balanitis, which is inflammation of the foreskin. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 2 weeks to treat any possible fungal infection. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, and avoiding harsh soaps or irritants can help prevent further cracking. If the symptoms persist, it is important to see a doctor for further evaluation and management.
