My dad is scheduled for laser surgery to treat his urinary bladder stone and prostate issue, but the surgeon mentioned he won't operate on the left kidney stone because it's small around 5.5mm. The report also mentioned a cortical cyst, which the surgeon says isn't a stone, but we thought it was a 15mm stone. Can you clarify what this cortical cyst is and what we should do about it?

He just needs prostrate surgery and bladder stone removal. As his left kidney stone is very small and doesn't require surgical intervention. Nothing to worry about cortical cyst.

I'm 29 and I'm dealing with a few issues that are really bothering me. My penis is small, and I have trouble with it not getting hard when I'm having sex. Plus, I end up finishing way too quickly. It's really affecting my confidence, and I just want my penis to be bigger and thicker. Can you give me some advice or suggest something that might help?

For increasing penis size and improving hardness, you can consider taking Viagra (Sildenafil) 50mg before sexual activity. For premature ejaculation, you can try Dapoxetine 30mg. Both medications can help improve your sexual performance. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe for you.

I've been having some trouble during intercourse because my penis gets smaller, and it doesn't get erect again afterward. It's happened a few times, and I'm starting to get really worried about it. Could there be something wrong that's making this happen? I'm not sure what to do or if theres a specific reason this might be happening. Any advice would be appreciated.

Will UTI go away on its own?

While it's possible for the body to clear a mild infection on its own in some cases, it can be very risky not to treat a confirmed UTI with antibiotics.
