I've got this painful issue that started this morning. So, I went to pee, and I sneezed at the same time without realizing it. Immediately, I felt this intense pain, like I might've stretched something in my urethra, but there's no bleeding. Now, whenever I try to pee, it really hurts at first. Oddly, if I pee slowly and let out just a little at a time, the pain isn't as bad. I'm 24, and I've never had any major health problems before. What could be going on here?

The sudden pain while urinating, especially after sneezing, may indicate a possible urethral strain or irritation. Since you're experiencing pain while peeing, especially at the beginning, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and guidance.

Possible Causes

  1. Urethral strain or irritation
  2. Urinary tract infection (UTI)
  3. Urethral spasms
  4. Pelvic floor muscle strain

Next Steps

  1. Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a urologist.
  2. Provide detailed information about your symptoms, including the sneezing incident.
  3. Get a physical examination and possibly some diagnostic tests (e.g., urinalysis, ultrasound) to rule out underlying conditions.

In the meantime:

  1. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
  2. Avoid spicy or acidic foods that might irritate your urethra.
  3. Urinate when you feel the need, rather than holding it in.

Is there a way to increase penis size? I'm worried because my erection size is about 5.1, but it's really small when flaccid, almost like it's squeezed. Could my daily masturbation habit be affecting this, and what can I do about it?

It's important to understand that daily masturbation is not likely to cause a permanent decrease in penis size. Penis size can vary significantly among individuals and can be influenced by factors such as genetics, hormonal levels, and overall health. If you're concerned about your size or experience discomfort, its a good idea to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions and discuss safe, evidence-based options for improving sexual health.

I'm really worried about this pain in my right testicle after I masturbate. I usually keep it to once or twice a week, so I don't think I'm overdoing it. I'm also dealing with premature ejaculation and I'm wondering if there's something natural I can try to help with both issues. Any advice?

You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a cold pack to the area may help reduce inflammation and pain. Make sure to rest and avoid any activities that worsen the pain. For premature ejaculation, you can try natural remedies such as behavioral techniques (such as the start-stop technique or the squeeze technique), pelvic floor exercises (Kegel exercises), and certain herbs like ashwagandha or ginseng. You can also consider using lidocaine sprays or condoms to reduce sensitivity. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my health right now. I have a 23 mm microlith in the upper pole of my kidney with some minimal hydronephrosis. There's this constant, mild pain on my right side, both in the kidney and the tube area. I'm also feeling pretty weak. I just got checked out yesterday, and they mentioned an edematous UV junction in my urinary bladder, plus a cyst and something about my thyroid. Is this something serious? What can I do about it? I'm really hoping to get some advice.
