Will UTI go away on its own?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
While it's possible for the body to clear a mild infection on its own in some cases, it can be very risky not to treat a confirmed UTI with antibiotics.

View allI'm a 19-year-old guy, and I've noticed that my penis leaks a clear fluid whenever I talk to a girl, whether it's at school or at home. I'm really curious if this is something I should be worried about in the future and how I can stop it from happening.
Its common for some young men to experience clear fluid leakage, often due to arousal or heightened emotions, which is typically a natural response. This fluid is called **pre-ejaculate**, and it doesn't generally cause long-term issues. If it concerns you, focusing on relaxation and managing stress may help, but if it becomes frequent or bothersome, consulting a healthcare professional can provide further reassurance.

I've been having some trouble with my foreskin since I can't pull it back when my penis is erect, and it really hurts when I try. I'm wondering, could this be phimosis or maybe paraphimosis? Also, I'm curious if there's a way to treat this without surgery, or is surgery the way to go? If I do need surgery, is it safe to have it done at my age, and should I be worried about any side effects?
You may be experiencing phimosis, which is the inability to fully retract the foreskin over the head of the penis. This can cause pain and discomfort, especially during erections. Phimosis is different from paraphimosis, which is a medical emergency where the retracted foreskin cannot be returned to its original position. For phimosis treatment, you can try using topical steroid creams such as Betamethasone or Hydrocortisone. These creams can help to soften the foreskin and make it easier to retract. You can apply a pea-sized amount of the cream to the tight area twice a day for a few weeks. If conservative treatments do not work, then circumcision surgery may be recommended.

I've been feeling a dragging sensation on the left side of my testicle and my color Doppler test showed extra testicular varicocele grade IV. The doctor said surgery is the only option but I'm wondering if there are any other treatments I could try first
While a grade IV varicocele typically warrants surgical intervention, alternative treatments like embolization or sclerotherapy might be considered. However, you should discuss these options with your doctor or a urologist to determine the best course of treatment for your specific case.
