I've noticed that my penis bends to the left, and I'm wondering if that's normal. Could this be from masturbating? I'd really like to know if there's a way to straighten it out.

Its normal for the penis to have a slight curve, and a bend to the left isnt usually a problem. Masturbation doesnt cause this, so dont worry. If the bend causes pain, difficulty during sex, or concerns, consult a urologist to rule out conditions like Peyronies disease. Otherwise, no treatment is needed.

So, I'm a bit worried about my 7-month-old son. He's got hydronephrosis in his left kidney and there's this PUJ obstruction. The doctor is saying he might need surgery. I'm just wondering, how can we tell if this is getting worse? Should we consider going ahead with the surgery or is there a chance it might get better on its own if we wait a bit?
To monitor the progression of your son's hydronephrosis with PUJ obstruction, your doctor may recommend regular ultrasound scans (every 3-6 months) to assess kidney function, drainage, and signs of deterioration; additionally, nuclear medicine studies like MAG3 or DMSA scans may be performed to evaluate kidney function and obstruction; surgery is often recommended for PUJ obstruction to prevent long-term kidney damage, but the timing depends on the severity of the obstruction, kidney function, and your child's overall health

I've had my kidney stent removed about a month ago, but I'm still having some pain in my side abdomen and my back pretty often. Is this normal, or could it indicate another issue? I'm really worried and could use some guidance.
It is not uncommon to experience some pain in the side abdomen and back after a kidney stent removal procedure. However, if the pain is persistent or severe, it could be a sign of a urinary tract infection or kidney stone. I recommend taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, drink plenty of water to help flush out any potential kidney stones. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
