Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A prostate volume of 374251 mm (374.251 ml) and a weight of 42.45 g at age 67 is significantly larger than a normal prostate, which typically weighs between 20-25 grams. While some enlargement is normal with age, this size may require medical intervention. Medications or surgery may be necessary, depending on the severity of symptoms and other medical factors

View allI have tight foreskin and I'm really uncomfortable with the idea of surgery are there any other treatments or solutions I can try
Preputioplasty is effective In children with congenital tightening of the foreskin. Several incisions are made into the tip of the foreskin to expose the head of the penis. The foreskin then needs to be retracted regularly until it has healed completely.

I'm having some problems that are really concerning me. Firstly, during sex, I notice that my penis seems to lose its hardness and takes quite some time to get firm again. Secondly, I'm worried about the size of my penis because the circumference seems small to me. Also, I'm not sure if it's normal that it bends downward instead of being straight. Could you let me know what might be causing these issues or what I might be able to do?

i have a 4mm kidney stone on both sides and was wondering if it can pass naturally without surgery also noticed slight bleeding in my urine today is that normal or something serious
Around 90% of small kidney stones (smaller than 6 mm) and 60% of large stones (larger than 6 mm) pass on their own. If you have a large kidney stone or one that's blocking the flow of pee, you'll need to have a procedure to break up and/or remove it.
