Lidocaine and Benzocaine for Treatment of PE
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Sprays that contain a numbing agent such as benzocaine, lidocaine or prilocaine are sometimes used to treat premature ejaculation. They're applied to the penis 10 to 15 minutes before sex to reduce sensation and help delay ejaculation.

View allI've been having this issue where my urine culture shows Klebsiella Pneumoniae. I've done this test a couple of times over the past few months and it keeps popping up. I've tried antibiotics, but they haven't really helped. What medication should I consider to get better? I'm worried and just want to feel healthy again.
The persistent presence of Klebsiella Pneumoniae in your urine culture, despite previous antibiotic treatments, suggests a possible antibiotic-resistant strain or an underlying condition like a urinary tract obstruction, kidney stones, or a neurogenic bladder; consult your urologist or nephrologist to discuss further treatment options, which may include a urine sensitivity test to determine the effective antibiotic, alternative antibiotics like Amikacin, Gentamicin, or Fosfomycin, or procedures to address underlying conditions, and in the meantime, drink plenty of water, urinate when needed, and practice good hygiene.

My brother has been diagnosed with kidney stones and is in constant pain. The report shows multiple stones can these be treated with medication or will surgery be necessary? The pain seems unbearable for him and we're really worried about the next steps.
Kidney stones are painful, and whether they can be treated with medication or require surgery depends on their size, location, and the severity of the pain. Some stones may pass on their own with increased fluid intake and pain medication, while others may require procedures like extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) or surgery

I'm a 21-year-old male and I've been having recurring UTIs. I had one back in January, where my abdomen scan was normal but the urine culture showed E. coli. My doctor prescribed Nitrofurantoin for 14 days along with Citralka and Meftalspas. Then in May, I got another UTI. Again, my abdomen scan was normal but E. coli showed up in the culture. This time, I was given 14 Amikacin 500 injections for a week plus Citralka. I felt fine for about 15 days, but now I'm experiencing a burning sensation when I pee. I'm really concerned and don't know what to do next. Can you help?
Consult with a urologist for a thorough evaluation. Get a urine culture with antibiotic sensitivity testing. Follow a personalized treatment plan, potentially involving a different antibiotic or longer treatment. Make necessary lifestyle changes and practice preventive measures to avoid further infections.
