I'm a bit worried about something that happened after my circumcision about 45 days ago. The skin on my penis glans has become really dry, and I notice peeling and flaking, especially in the mornings when I wake up. It seems to get better after I take a bath. Is this something I should be concerned about, or does it just happen sometimes?

Question

I've been dealing with this really stubborn balanitis on the head of my penis for over a month now, and it's just not improving. I've already been to my doctor twice. First, they gave me fluconazole, and the second time, some antifungal cream along with hydrocortisone ointment. Neither treatment has worked. What could be the reason my balanitis isn't clearing up? Should antibiotics be considered in this situation?

Question

My dad has a 13 mm kidney stone and the doctor recommended keyhole surgery but we really want to avoid an operation. We heard homeopathy might have good treatment options - can homeopathy help dissolve or pass a stone this size without surgery?

Question

I'm a guy and I've been wondering if it's okay to masturbate while standing up before taking a shower. Is that normal, or could it put too much pressure on my penis? I'd really appreciate any advice or tips you might have on this.
