I've been having issues with frequent urination lately and my test results showed low creatinine levels and borderline uric acid. I also have phimosis which I plan to get surgery for soon, but right now I really want to figure out what's causing the constant need to pee.

My penis has always curved to the left and I recently got a penile Doppler test that showed small plaques. The doctor said surgery is the only option but only if sex is uncomfortable. I want to straighten it but I'm worried about surgery risks. Are there any other treatments like penile traction devices that could work?
