Why do I get frequent urinary tract infections?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Recurrent UTIs (RUTI) are mainly caused by reinfection by the same pathogen. Having frequent sexual intercourse is one of the greatest risk factors for RUTIs. In a subgroup of individuals with coexisting morbid conditions, complicated RUTIs can lead to upper tract infections or urosepsis.

View allI'm facing a really painful issue. Every time I have sex or my partner gives me oral, my foreskin tears, and it's really hurting a lot. It's especially painful if I try to have sex within the next day or two after it happens. It usually takes around 23 days for it to heal completely. What can I do about this, and is there a way to prevent it from happening in the first place?

I've recently been diagnosed with a 5mm kidney stone and a cyst in my testicle. Ever since I started taking Himalaya Cystone and homeopathic Berberis Vulgaris for them, I've been having some issues with erections. Is that normal? Should I be worried about these side effects?
Erectile issues are not typically caused by medications like **Himalaya Cystone** or **Berberis Vulgaris**, but stress or anxiety related to your kidney stone and testicular cyst diagnosis might contribute. If this persists, consult a doctor to rule out any underlying hormonal or vascular causes.

My 4-year-old son was diagnosed with glandular hypospadias, chordee, and a tight urethral opening doctors recommended surgery but I'm worried about risks and recovery. What should I expect with his condition and the procedure?
Hypospadias surgery, while generally successful, carries potential risks and a recovery period that can be a bit challenging. Your son's condition, including glandular hypospadias, chordee, and a tight urethral opening, will be addressed with surgery, which may involve moving the urethral opening to its proper location and releasing the chordee, a downward curve of the penis. The recovery period typically includes pain management, potential catheter use, and follow-up appointments. While the procedure is generally safe and the surgery is usually done on an outpatient basis, complications like scarring, infection, or urethral narrowing can occur, though they are generally rare
