I've been having this issue where every time I get sexual feelings, there's this white jelly-like stuff leaking from my penis, and I feel a burning sensation. It's not just down there but in my legs too, and my body feels hotter than usual. I had intercourse about 10 months ago, got an infection, and even though that got better after 5 months, these symptoms started showing up. The burning in my legs is really bad, and I can't figure out what's going on. I've seen a bunch of doctors, but nothing's worked. Can you help me understand what might be happening and what I should do about it?

Just found out I have a 1.2mm kidney stone and my doctor recommended surgery. Is there any way to treat this with just meds or do I really need the surgery?

I'm really struggling with some issues regarding my penis. It seems to have gotten quite small, and I feel awkward when I'm peeing because I make an effort to hide it from others. When it does get hard, it's not as firm as I'd like, and I often experience early leakage. Can you guide me on what might be happening and suggest possible solutions?

The typical erect penis is usually 5 to 6 inches long with a circumference of 4 to 5 inches. There's more variation in the size of flaccid penises. Some guys are genuinely smaller than that. In rare cases, genetics and hormone problems cause a condition called micropenis ...Sometimes Peyronie's disease can reduce a guy's size. Losing weight will reveal more of that hidden shaft that's buried beneath belly fat. It doesn't actually increase your size, but it will look that way..
