I've just got my semen analysis results, and it shows pus cells in my semen at a level of 3045. I'm trying to figure out what could be causing this. On the results, my sperm count is 36 million, morphology is at 70%, and everything else seems to be within the normal range. Could you help me understand what's going on and what kind of treatment I might need?

The presence of pus in your semen, also known as pyospermia, can be caused by various factors, including prostatitis, epididymitis, urethritis, or a urinary tract infection (UTI), and despite your relatively normal semen analysis parameters (sperm count, morphology), it's essential to consult a urologist

I'm a bit concerned about something. I'm 23 and recently, I've noticed that the head of my penis has turned a blackish color, and there are some horizontal wrinkles on it. I've been masturbating daily for the past three years, and sometimes I forget to clean up afterwards. Could you recommend a cream or any advice on what might be happening?

You may be experiencing a fungal infection or irritation on your penis head. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wash it gently after masturbating to prevent further irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm feeling some discomfort in the area around my left testicle, but not directly in the testicle itself. It's not exactly painful, more like an uneasy feeling. Should I be concerned or get it checked out?

The uneasy feeling in the left testicle area, but not directly in the testicles, could be related to epididymitis, a groin strain, or a hernia; however, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional, such as a primary care physician or a urologist, for a proper evaluation, as they can perform a physical examination and potentially order imaging tests to determine the cause and recommend appropriate treatment.

I'm wondering about the safety of masturbating when I have a kidney urethral stent placed inside me. Could this cause any problems or issues with my stent or my health?

Urethral stent should not cause any problem during masturbation, although it may be best to avoid it for fear of damage to nearby structures.
