My PSA level is 100 ng/ml and I'm having really bad pain when I pee, plus the flow is super slow. What should I do next? Is this life-threatening or can it be treated without surgery?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A PSA level of 100 ng/ml and the symptoms you're describing (painful urination and slow flow) are very concerning and should be evaluated urgently. It's crucial to seek medical attention promptly to determine the cause and appropriate treatment plan. While not necessarily life-threatening immediately, the symptoms and PSA level suggest a need for a urologist's evaluation

While having sex, I've noticed random cuts on the skin of my penis, and my partner experiences a burning sensation around the opening of her vagina. Could this be something serious? Sometimes we don't use protection. Also, I'm curious if there's a chance that kits might give incorrect results. Can you help with this?
The random cuts on your penis skin and your partner's burning sensation around the vaginal opening during sex could be indicative of a sexually transmitted infection (STI), such as herpes, HPV, or genital warts, or other conditions like genital eczema, psoriasis, or dermatitis; the lack of protection during sex increases the risk of STI transmission; regarding the accuracy of STI test kits, while they are generally reliable, there is a small chance of false negatives or false positives, so it's essential to consult a urologist

I've been dealing with some intense pain in my lower abdomen ever since I was told I have kidney stones a few days ago. The ultrasound showed a 4mm stone, and my doctor prescribed me meftal spas for the pain, but it's not really working for me. The pain is seriously tough to handle. Is there any other way to manage or stop this pain?
If Dolo 650 isn't effective, consider the following options: Consult your doctor before switching medications. You can try Crocin (paracetamol) 650mg or Calpol (paracetamol) 650mg. If your fever is severe, your doctor may prescribe a stronger medication like Combiflam (ibuprofen and paracetamol) or Brufen (ibuprofen). However, always consult your doctor before taking any new medication. Additionally, ensure staying hydrated and getting plenty of rest.
