My sonography showed an enlarged prostate but the urologist in Latur is away for two days. The local family doctor prescribed urimax 0.4mg tablet. Is it okay to wait for two days before seeing the specialist? Will this tablet be enough or is surgery usually needed for this condition?

Watchful waiting is often chosen by men who are not bothered by symptoms of enlarged prostate. They have no treatment but get regular checkups and wait to see whether the condition gets worse....Medical treatment of BPH is usually reserved for men who have significant symptoms. The available drugs alpha blockers relax the smooth muscles of the prostate, and the bladder neck, which helps to relieve urinary obstruction caused by an enlarged prostate...

View allI'm really troubled by nightfall and it's been going on for 10 years now. I've tried various Ayurvedic and Unani medicines, but nothing seems to work. Can you help me understand why this is happening and what I can do to cure it?
Nightfall is a normal function of the body. It is the body's way of discharging the semen which gets collected. Don't fall into a trap by going for different types of treatments and waste your money. It is a natural process of the body and no medicine is required for it.

I'm 23 and sometimes I struggle to control this habit. I've heard from others that doing this can mean losing sperm in the future, and it's really worrying me. Could you help clarify this for me?
If you are concerned about excessive masturbation or it is interfering with your daily life, you may consider reducing the frequency. It is important to maintain a healthy balance in all aspects of life. There is no scientific evidence to suggest that masturbation leads to loss of sperm or infertility in the future. It is a natural and normal part of human sexuality. If you have any concerns about your sexual health or habits, it is always a good idea to speak with a healthcare provider for personalized advice and guidance.

I'm really worried about my brother. He was told he has a positive semen culture for enterococcus faecalis, and now his urologist prescribed two daily injections of mikacin 500 mg for 5 days and a daily tablet of forcan 150. I'm just wondering, is it normal to need so many injections for this type of infection? And is mikacin the right antibiotic for enterococcus faecalis?
