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.

View allCan a grade 3 varicocele on the right side measuring 3.1 mm and left side at 4.1 mm be treated without surgery? Also have an epididymal cyst should I be worried about that too?
A Grade 3 varicocele (as described with your measurements) usually requires surgical treatment, but non-surgical options like embolization may be considered. An epididymal cyst is generally not a cause for concern and often resolves on its own

Hey, I'm a 14-year-old guy and I've been going through something weird recently. Every time I masturbate, I get these super sharp, cramp-like pains in my stomach. It lasts for about a minute or so, and if I move around too much, I get the pain again but it feels like it's moving up towards my chest. I usually do it every day, so I'm kinda worried and wondering what's going on. Any idea what this could be?
Overexcitement_: Rushing into intercourse can lead to premature ejaculation. 2. _Lack of control_: Insufficient practice in controlling ejaculation can contribute to the issue. 3. _Performance anxiety_: Fear of not satisfying your partner can exacerbate the problem. _Solutions_ 1. _Practice relaxation techniques_: Regular relaxation practices, such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation, can help reduce anxiety and improve control. 2. _Exercise pelvic floor muscles_: Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles through Kegel exercises can help improve ejaculation control. 3. _Use the "stop-start" technique_: During intercourse, stop when you feel close to ejaculation, wait for 30 seconds to 1 minute, and then resume. 4. _Try the "squeeze" technique_: When you feel close to ejaculation, squeeze the base of your penis or the head of your penis to delay ejaculation. 5. _Consider counseling or therapy_: A sex therapist or counselor can help you address underlying issues and develop strategies to improve your sexual performance. 6. _Topical anesthetics or delay sprays_: Certain products, like lidocaine or benzocaine sprays, can help reduce sensitivity and delay ejaculation. _Remember_ 1. _Communicate with your partner_: Openly discuss your concerns and work together to find solutions. 2. _Practice patience and persistence_: Overcoming premature ejaculation takes time and effort.

I've been struggling with difficulty urinating for the past year I have to push hard to pee and my stream is weak. The cystoscopy showed only a high bladder neck issue, with normal prostate and urethra, but I constantly feel tightness there. My urine smells bad even though UTI tests are negative, and my post-void residue is 46ml. My doctor prescribed Alfoo tablets for life is that safe long-term? Could it harm my prostate or increase cancer risk? Are there any permanent non-surgical treatments for this?
This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.
