I'm 16 and have been masturbating quite a bit, sometimes up to three times a day. I've noticed that the veins on my penis are becoming more pronounced and seem to be multiplying. Every day, a new vein seems to pop up, and a couple of them are really thick and very visible, even when I'm not aroused. Could you help me understand why this is happening?

Can getting pregnant with a torn condom work if we're trying for a baby by cutting the tip with scissors? I have tight foreskin and sex without a condom is painful, so we're using this method but not sure if it's effective.

It is possible.

I have kidney stones in both kidneys 16mm in the right kidney mid pole and 14mm and 67mm stones in the left kidney. My doctor suggested laser treatment for both kidneys at the same time. Is it safe to do both surgeries together or are there risks I should know about?

Surgery recommended methods are shock wave lithotripsy,ureteroscopy,percutaneous nephrolitomy etc depending on the stone size.Here ureteroscopy is advised.
