My penis has a 30-degree curve to the right side, and I think it might be because I sleep on my stomach. Are there any home remedies, habits, or medicines that can help straighten it without needing surgery?

A 30-degree penile curve might be related to Peyronie's disease, a condition causing scar tissue to form inside the penis, leading to curvature, and can sometimes be painful. While sleeping on your stomach could potentially contribute, it's best to consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment options.

Is it normal to have no bacteria present if there's a history of urine infections? I've had kidney stones last year and have had urine infections 2 or 3 times. Should I be worried or is this within the normal range?

Based on your history of recurrent urine infections and a kidney stone last year, it is important to monitor your urine parameters closely. A normal urine test should not show any bacteria present. To prevent further infections, you can consider taking cranberry supplements or D-mannose powder to help maintain urinary tract health. Additionally, you can ask your doctor about prescribing you with a low-dose antibiotic such as Nitrofurantoin to take after intercourse or as a prophylactic treatment. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor your kidney health and prevent future complications.
