Is it normal for my 2.5-year-old to be passing more gas than usual? It's been happening for a couple of weeks now. I'm giving him polyethylene glycol for constipation, so I'm wondering if that could be related. Should I be concerned?

I'm a bit concerned and curious because my 12-year-old brother had his first ejaculation when he saw a picture of a naked girl on a friend's phone. He even felt an orgasm without even touching his penis. Is that normal?

I'm a bit concerned about my 4-month-old baby. He's up to date with all his vaccinations up to his 16-week mark. Could you let me know which vaccines hell need once he hits 6 months?

Persistent meatus swelling with unusual coloration. Given your treatment history and normal test results (urine routine & culture, ultrasound), consider the following possibilities: 1. _Chronic inflammation_: Prolonged inflammation might be causing the swelling and discoloration. 2. _Vascular anomalies_: Abnormal blood vessels could be contributing to the dark blue color. 3. _Meatus stenosis_: Narrowing of the meatus might be causing swelling and discomfort. Discuss the following with your surgeon: 1. _Biopsy_: To rule out underlying conditions like cancer or granulomas. 2. _Doppler ultrasound_: To evaluate blood flow and potential vascular anomalies. 3. _Alternative treatments_: Consider options like corticosteroid injections or topical creams to reduce inflammation. Seek a second opinion from a urologist if you're not satisfied with your current treatment progress.
