For someone with BPH, heart issues, and diabetes, the safest surgery option would likely involve a minimally invasive procedure like Transurethral Incision of the Prostate (TUIP) or laser surgery (HoLEP or ThuLEP). TUIP is generally safer than TURP due to a lower risk of complications like bleeding and requires less anesthesia. Laser surgery offers less bleeding, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery compared to traditional TURP

I have a 1.2x1.1 cm simple cortical cyst in the upper pole of my right kidney. The urologist prescribed norfloxacin 400mg twice daily for 5 days and mentioned surgery if it doesn't improve. I'm 64 and retired without a pension should I be worried about needing surgery or are there other options I can explore first

Exicision of the cysts is advised to the patient.Nephrologist opinion is advised to the patient.

Can doing masturbation every day lead to weak erections? Ive heard that excessive masturbation might have some side effects. Should I be worried if I'm experiencing this?

Excessive masturbation can lead to temporary weak erections, decreased libido, or desensitization, but it does not typically cause permanent damage; daily masturbation can lead to fatigue, decreased sensitivity, and potential negative impacts on relationships and daily life; other potential side effects of excessive masturbation include guilt, shame, anxiety, decreased focus, and neglect of responsibilities.

I need a manforce viagra tablet from PRACTO, but they're asking for a prescription and I don't have one. Can you guide me on what to do?

Manforce Viagra is a prescription medication, and it's important to consult a healthcare provider to ensure it's safe and appropriate for you. I recommend scheduling a visit with a doctor who can assess your health and provide the necessary prescription.
