My foreskin retracts easily when I'm soft but gets really tight when I'm erect and hard to pull back. I don't want to go for surgery are there any other medical treatments that could help with this?

I've got a situation that's been on my mind. I ended up having paid sex with a woman who said she wasn't a professional. We used a condom, but later I realized there was a small hole in it. This really got me worried, so I went for an HIVDUO IVth Generation test just to be sure. I had sex on the 17th of March and I got tested on the 19th. The result mentioned that it's non-reactive with a value of 0.32 unit SCO. Can you help me understand what this means and what I should do next?

I'm noticing that my right testicle isn't sitting in the same position as my left one. The right side hangs lower, and I've also observed that the right testicle is bigger than the left. Is this something I should be worried about or maybe get checked out?

I'm really concerned about my urine test results. It shows pus cells at 24 hpf, epithelial cells at 35 hpf, and ketones are present, but everything else seems normal. What does this mean exactly? Should I be worried about these numbers?

since ketones are present kindly check your sugar levels
