I'm dealing with this intense burning sensation in my penis all day long, especially when it's erect. It feels like the nerves are stretching too much, which makes the pain unbearable. It's gotten to the point where I can't even sit on a bike. I found out I have trichomonas from a urine test and have been on treatment for 13 days, but I'm not seeing much progress. This has been going on for about five months now, and I'm getting pretty frustrated. I'm wondering if this infection can actually last that long and how much longer it might take to see some improvement. I've done all kinds of tests like MRI, color Doppler, and still, after all this time, the trichomonas was found in my urine test. Could you give me some advice on what to do next?

I'm sorry to hear about your discomfort. Trichomonas infection can sometimes cause persistent symptoms, and it may take longer to fully clear up depending on the severity. Since you've been under treatment for 13 days without significant improvement, I recommend revisiting your doctor to reassess your treatment plan or check for any other underlying issues. Its important to ensure you're receiving the correct medication and follow-up care.

I'm a 32-year-old male dealing with hydrocele and looking for a doctor near Thane. Can you tell me how long the surgery takes, what the cost might be, and if there are any other treatment options besides surgery?

For adult males, hydroceles often go away on their own within six months. A hydrocele requires treatment only if it gets large enough to cause discomfort or disfigurement. Then it might need to be surgically removed... The procedure can be performed on an outpatient basis during general or regional anesthesia..No other treatment are as effective as surgery..Consult Surgeon for further advice...

I'm a bit worried because I tried taking a Manforce 100 mg tablet about 30 minutes before having sex with my girlfriend, but it didn't seem to help me stay longer, and I ended up with a headache after half an hour. Can you tell me the right way to use Manforce 100 mg before sex and how long it's meant to keep you going? I'm also curious about the differences between the 50 mg and 100 mg doses. I'm 23 years old, by the way. Should I stick with the 100 mg?

Manforce (sildenafil) 100 mg should be taken on an empty stomach with water about 1 hour before sex for best results, as it needs time to work. Its effect lasts 46 hours but doesn't directly control duration. If 100 mg causes headaches, try 50 mg instead. Consult a doctor to confirm the dose suitable for you.
