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've just gotten married, and whenever my wife and I try to have sex, I feel pain in the foreskin area of my penis. It looks like there's some bleeding, especially where the foreskin is attached. My wife is also experiencing discomfort in her vagina. We're both pretty worried about this. What steps should we take to address these issues?
Tongue ulcers can be quite painful. Possible causes: - Trauma or injury - Viral infections (e.g., herpes, hand-foot-and-mouth disease) - Bacterial infections (e.g., strep throat) - Nutritional deficiencies (e.g., vitamin B12, iron) - Hormonal changes For relief, try: - Applying topical anesthetics like Orajel or Anbesol - Using a saltwater rinse - Avoiding spicy or acidic foods - Staying hydrated - Consulting a doctor or dentist for proper diagnosis and treatment If your symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention.

I'm dealing with a condition called balanitis, and it's been going on for quite a while now. Could you suggest any creams or tablets that might help?
Hi there i understand your concern regarding your genital health...The main cause of balanitis is poor hygiene. Poor hygiene causes harmful bacteria to overpopulate the area, which can lead to infection...it can be fungal as well... Clinical examination is necessary to diagnose it and to rule out other possible conditions....you may require antibiotic or antifungal creams..Before applying any treatment option, it is important to avoid using irritants such as perfumed soap, lotion, or powder. This prevents further irritation of the foreskin...Consult nearest dermatologist they will do the needful.

I've had this lump in my groin area under the skin for about a week now. It feels like a semi-hard ball and it really hurts when I touch it. Any idea on what it could be and how I can get rid of it?
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
