I recently had stents placed in both my ureters and they were there for a week after my RIRS procedure. After the stents were removed, I tried to masturbate after a couple of days because I felt the urge, but I ended up having this weird experience where it felt like sperm was coming out but nothing actually did; it was just dry. Should I be worried about this or is it something that can happen?

After stent removal, it's normal to experience temporary changes in ejaculation, and the "dry" sensation could be due to inflammation, scarring, or residual swelling, so consult your urologist to rule out any complications or blockages

I've been dealing with this really uncomfortable situation after a bout of scabies a few months ago, mostly around the genital area. Even though the scabies is gone, I developed 20 bumps on my testicles that are super itchy. Now, I can't seem to stop scratching them because it brings on this intense orgasmic feeling, leading me to masturbate more. It's become quite a habit, and I'm worried because the itching is getting worse. In fact, I scratched so hard that I started to bleed a bit, but even after healing, I can't resist scratching again. What should I do to stop this cycle and get rid of the intense itching?
