I've had a hernia on the left side of my groin for a while, and recently noticed my spermatocele in the upper scrotum has gotten bigger. The hernia has been a bit painful the last few days, and the spermatocele seems to have grown around the same time. Could the hernia be causing the spermatocele to increase in size? If I get hernia surgery, will that help with the spermatocele too? Are there any non-surgical treatments for spermatocele that might help?

I'm 24 and dealing with phimosis my foreskin is really tight. I'm scared of surgery though. Can betnovate cream or homeopathic treatments help fix this without needing an operation?

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I'm feeling really concerned about some symptoms. Is it possible for a burning sensation in the penis to be an initial symptom of HIV, even if I don't have any fever or other symptoms?

Initial symptoms of HIV can vary, but common ones include flu-like symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and body aches, while penis burning or urethral discharge can be symptoms of other conditions like urinary tract infections (UTIs) or sexually transmitted infections (STIs); however, some people with acute HIV infection may experience genital or anal ulcers, or urethral discharge, so if you're concerned, consult a healthcare provider for testing and evaluation.

I recently had a yeast infection on my penis and used Lobate GM cream along with a dose of fluconazole 150. While the fungus seems to be gone, now I've developed these red wounds on the head of my penis with this white liquid discharge. It's painful to touch and there's a burning sensation. What should I do about these new symptoms?

You may be experiencing a secondary infection or irritation after treating the yeast infection. The red wounds with white discharge and burning sensation could indicate a bacterial infection. I recommend using an antibiotic cream like Neosporin or Bacitracin on the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with the pain and inflammation. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to promote healing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
