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'm 28 and I've been dealing with these malar bags. I really don't want to go under the knife, so I've been trying different massages and even icing them. Is there anything else I can do to help reduce them or should I consider other treatments? I'm just really hoping to avoid surgery if possible.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I've had this thing for more than a year now, and today when I pressed it, some dust came out. It doesn't hurt or anything, but I'm confused. I've shown it to a doctor before, and they mentioned it might be due to sweat gland dysfunction. But why is dust coming out of it? What's going on here?

it could be pus mostly

I'm noticing these small clear bumps on my fingers and theyre a bit concerning. I started popping them and some clear liquid comes out, but they just fill back up again. They werent that many before, but now Ive got a few more on one finger, the back of my hand, and even my palm. I also see some tiny ones on my right hand, but theyre not big enough to pop. They don't really hurt unless I pop them and they dont itch either. Any idea what might be going on?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.
