Question

I've noticed that one of my testicles, the right one specifically, seems to hang lower than it used to. I'm 21 and just had a full body check where everything seemed fine, and the doctor checked my testicles but didn't touch them, just took a good look. I hit the gym pretty regularly and wear tight shortsI'm wondering if that or the lifting might be affecting this. I also have another medical exam soon before I start work on a ship. Could this lower-hanging testicle be something I should worry about?

It's possible that lifting heavy weights or wearing tight shorts could cause some temporary changes in the position of your testicle, but if your doctor didn't find any issues during your last checkup, it likely isn't a cause for concern. However, if you notice persistent discomfort or other symptoms, it's a good idea to mention it during your next medical checkup before heading to the ship.

Question

I'm a 21-year-old guy, and I've been wondering about something that's been on my mind. I tend to masturbate almost daily, sometimes up to three times a day, or at least once. Also, I've been having sex with my girlfriend, maybe around 32 times. I'm curious to know if this might have any impact on my health now or in the future. Does what I'm doing pose any risks?

Question

My foreskin won't pull back and it's really uncomfortable is there any way to treat phimosis without surgery? I'm worried about the pain and recovery if I go under the knife. Are there creams or stretches that actually work?

Question

I have a 9.6mm stone stuck in my right upper ureter with mild hydronephrosis, and there's also some right adrenal linear calcification. I've had lithotripsy before in 2018 and really don't want surgery again. Are there any Ayurvedic, Homeopathic, or Allopathic medicines that can help pass the stone? I've been urinating very frequently too could that be related? What are my options for non-surgical treatment?
