I recently noticed a lump about the size of a bee under the skin on the shaft of my penis. It's not painful at all, even when I press on it, but I'm a bit worried. Could this be something serious?

View allI'm currently weighing 67 kg and have been on the AKT4 kit for about a month now, taking it every day. I recently went through the guidelines and noticed that the amounts of ethambutol and isoniazid I'm getting are lower than what's recommended for my weight. Specifically, it seems like my dose of ethambutol is 400 mg less and isoniazid is 300 mg less than what's suggested. Should I be worried about this affecting my treatment for extrapulmonary tuberculosis in epididymitis?
It's important to follow the prescribed dosage for your condition, as the dosages in the AKT4 kit are typically based on standard treatment guidelines. Since your weight requires slightly higher doses of Ethambutol and Isoniazid, discuss this with your doctor to ensure the treatment is effective and adjusted for your needs.

How can I tell if my phimosis is congenital or developed as an adult also does having phimosis mean I'm impotent and can congenital phimosis be treated with betamethasone cream instead of surgery
Phimosis, whether congenital (present at birth) or acquired (developing later in life), does not automatically mean you are impotent. Congenital phimosis can sometimes be treated with topical corticosteroids like betamethasone cream, but surgery may still be necessary.
