Question

I had kidney stone removal surgery 3 weeks ago and the stent was taken out 5 days back. For the past two days my ear has been hurting and the left side of my face feels dull and numb. Could this be from the antibiotics? If I stop taking them will it go back to normal or do I need some other treatment?

Question

I'm experiencing something a bit unusual and I'm pretty concerned about it. Whenever I'm in the shower and I rub my scrotum, this white-colored substance gets discharged. It's been happening for about 45 months now, and it's not going away. Also, it seems to take about 23 days for this substance to build up again. There's also an unpleasant smell when this stuff comes out. What could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?
