My friend is 28 and has been dealing with venous leak for over a year now. He's seen multiple doctors and done his own research, but apart from surgery, there don't seem to be many treatment options. He's currently using Viagra, but we've heard even the surgery isn't a permanent fix. Recently, we came across stem cell therapy does it actually work for venous leak? Can it fully heal the condition, and what's the approximate cost in India? Would really appreciate some clarity on this.

I'm thinking about starting Manforce 200mg because it was recommended to me. I'm a bit worried about any possible side effects that I should be aware of. Also, what's the best time to take this medicine? Should it be taken with food or on an empty stomach?

Manforce 200mg, which contains sildenafil, is commonly used for erectile dysfunction. Potential side effects include headaches, dizziness, and digestive issues. It's best taken on an empty stomach about 30 minutes to 1 hour before sexual activity, as high-fat meals may delay its effectiveness. Always follow your doctor's advice for personalized guidance.

It's been about 20 days since I had laser circumcision, and I still see a stitch on top. There's also some pain on the right side. How long does it usually take for the stitches to dissolve and everything to heal properly? I'm wondering if it's time to get a second opinion. Any advice or help would be appreciated!

It's common for stitches to take a little longer to dissolve after a circumcision, typically around 2-4 weeks, depending on the type of stitches used. If you're experiencing pain or if the stitch hasn't dissolved yet, it's a good idea to consult with your doctor for a follow-up to ensure proper healing and to rule out any complications. Don't hesitate to seek a second opinion for peace of mind.
