I'm experiencing a burning sensation and pain at the tip of my penis every time I use the toilet. I've seen a doctor and they did an ultrasound which came back normal. I also visited a urologist who said there's no major issue, but I'm still having these symptoms despite taking medication. What should I do?

View allI've been having this pain on the left side of my butt for over a month now and even after visiting the doctor, who said it'll be fine and gave me some painkillers, it's still there. I decided to get an MRI and CT scan, but those came back normal too. Now it's super frustrating because in the last five days, I've started feeling this sharp pain on my right side as well. Plus, I've been needing to pee a lot more often. Could all these be connected somehow? I'm seriously worried and just want to find out what might be going on.
_Azithral Side Effects: Diarrhea and Bloody Mucus in Stool_ Given your symptoms, it's essential to assess the situation and determine the best course of action. _Possible Causes:_ 1. _Antibiotic-associated diarrhea_: Azithral (azithromycin) can cause diarrhea, especially when taken for an extended period. 2. _Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) infection_: Antibiotics like azithromycin can disrupt the gut microbiome, increasing the risk of C. diff infection, which can cause diarrhea and bloody stools. 3. _Other gastrointestinal issues_: Underlying gastrointestinal conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), can be exacerbated by antibiotics. _Recommendations:_ 1. _Consult your doctor*: Immediately inform your doctor about the diarrhea and bloody mucus in your stool. They may recommend: - Stopping the antibiotic and switching to an alternative treatment - Continuing the antibiotic with close monitoring of your symptoms - Adding medications to manage diarrhea and prevent dehydration 2. _Fluid replacement*: Drink plenty of fluids, such as water, clear broths, or electrolyte-rich beverages like coconut water or sports drinks, to replace lost fluids and electrolytes. 3. _Stool tests*: Your doctor may order stool tests to check for C. diff infection or other gastrointestinal pathogens. _Important Notes:_ 1. _Don't stop antibiotics without consulting your doctor*: Stopping antibiotics abruptly can lead to treatment failure, antibiotic resistance, or worsening of the underlying infection. 2. _Seek medical attention if*: You experience severe diarrhea, bloody stools, abdominal pain, fever above 101.5F (38.6C), or signs of dehydration, such as excessive thirst, dark urine, or decreased urine output.

I'm dealing with an Escherichia coli UTI, and my weight is 58 kg. The lab report says Chloramphenicol could be effective. Could you guide me on the appropriate dosage for the 500mg capsules? I'm a bit concerned about getting it right.
Chloramphenicol is commonly used to treat Escherichia coli UTIs. The recommended dosage for adults is usually 500 mg every 6 hours. Since your weight is 58 kg, the appropriate dosage for you would be 500 mg every 6 hours. It is important to complete the full course of treatment as prescribed by your healthcare provider to ensure the infection is completely eradicated.

I'm experiencing this pinching feeling in my scrotum, kind of like someone poking me with a pin, and it's super embarrassing when I'm trying to sit in public. Adjusting my testicles or penis doesnt seem to help at all, and I just can't resist the urge to itch down there. It comes on at random times and sometimes the pain is just too much to handle. When I look at my scrotum, it seems completely normal. What's going on?
