I had ZSR circumcision surgery on 22 July 2020 but the staple pin hasn't fully come off my penis yet. Trying to remove it with tools is really painful is there any home remedy or easier way to get it out without so much pain?

It's understandable that the staple pin hasn't come off naturally after 5 years. While it typically falls off within 10-14 days, it's best to consult your urologist for a professional assessment and removal, as attempting to do so at home can cause further pain and potentially complications

I have a 5mm calculus in my right upper ureter about 5cm below the pelviureteric junction. Is there any chance it can pass on its own without surgery? Are there any medicines that could help with this?

Question

I'm having trouble with not being able to release sperm when having sex. I get an erection when I take Suhagra 50, but I can't seem to ejaculate. My wife and I are trying to have a baby, and she's on medication for it. The doctor advised us to have sex over the next few days, but I'm struggling because I can't finish without releasing sperm. What can I do about this?
