I've just got my urine test results back and it mentions something about PUS cells being 56 hpf. My doctor said it's a UTI. What should I be doing to treat it, and is there anything I should be worried about?

For a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) diagnosis with 5-6 pus cellshpf, your doctor will likely prescribe antibiotics, such as Nitrofurantoin, Ciprofloxacin, or Amoxicillin, for 3-7 days to clear the infection; also, drink plenty of water, urinate when needed, and practice good hygiene; potential risk factors if left untreated include kidney damage, recurrent infections, and sepsis, so complete the full antibiotic course and follow up

Question

I'm worried about my recent ultrasound results. It says I have left renal cortical cysts and grade II fatty changes in my liver, plus something called prostatomegaly. The report mentions that my left kidney is normal in size and there's no evidence of any stones or hydronephrosis. There are two cystic lesions at the lower pole, one of which is pretty big. Should I be concerned about these findings, especially the cysts and liver changes? What do these terms really mean for my health?

Question

I'm dealing with erectile dysfunction and was wondering if it's okay to take Tadact 10 mg every day. How should I be taking it, or is there another medication you recommend? I don't have any other health issues.

Question

I'm experiencing this weird vibrating sensation at the tip of my penis. It gets really strong during or after sex, and sometimes after I feel the urge to pee but can't go right away. Other times, it can just come and go randomly. I've only been with my wife, and we've both gone through Togocin injections and a bunch of different antibiotics twice. That seemed to help for a bit, but the symptoms keep coming back and get worse if I don't take the meds. Interestingly, my wife hasn't had any issues or symptoms like mine. What could be going on?
