The skin on the top of my penis doesn't pull back when it's erect, and even when I try to move it down manually, it won't budge. I thought this was normal but my friends say it's not. Could this be a problem that needs surgery?

I'm really concerned because the frenulum on my penis seems to be partially torn, and now I don't experience the same level of pleasure or sensitivity as I used to during orgasms. There's no bleeding, just a bit of pain. I'm wondering what steps I should take and which type of doctor would be best to consult about this issue.
The torn frenulum can lead to decreased pleasure and sensitivity during orgasm. You can use a topical anesthetic cream containing Lidocaine to help with the pain. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen. It is advisable to consult a Urologist for further evaluation and management.

I've got a 4 mm kidney stone and there's some mild swelling on my left ureter. The pain and vomiting I'm experiencing are really concerning me. Could you advise on how serious this is and what steps I should take to manage it?
You are experiencing symptoms of kidney stones with associated complications. To help with the pain and promote the passage of the stone, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen. It is important to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Additionally, your doctor may prescribe tamsulosin to help relax the muscles in the ureter and facilitate the passage of the stone. If the pain is severe, stronger pain medications such as ketorolac may be prescribed. In cases of persistent vomiting, antiemetic medications like ondansetron can be helpful. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage for each medication.
