I'm having some trouble and really need some advice. For about a week now, I've been experiencing a heavy pain and a burning sensation when I pull the skin back on my penis. It also hurts the same way when I urinate and even when I go potty. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm not sure whether I should see a dermatologist or a sexologist about this. Could you guide me on which doctor would be the best to consult?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted infection. It is important to consult a Urologist for a proper evaluation and treatment. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like Ibuprofen and drink plenty of water to help with the burning sensation.

View allMy dad has borderline prostatomegaly his ultrasound showed an enlarged prostate at 31x38x34 mm with a volume of 224cc but no focal lesions. He had TURP surgery back in 2009. Is TURP needed again or are there other treatment options we should consider?
For a case of borderline prostatomegaly, with a prostate volume of 224cc and a prior TURP, a repeat TURP may not be the first course of action. Other treatment options, like watchful waiting, medications, or even a different surgical procedure, should be considered. The best approach depends on the severity of symptoms and other factors

Can a 9mm kidney stone be treated with just medication and fluids or is surgery necessary? I've attached my sonography report for reference what would you suggest based on the findings?
Most evidence suggests that stones less than 10 mm in diameter have a reasonable chance of passing through the urinary tract spontaneously. You may be offered medical expulsive therapy (MET) using an alpha blocker medication, such as tamsulosin.

I'm noticing some brown coloring on a part of the head of my penis. It doesn't hurt or irritate me, but it's made me anxious recently. I've only been pulling back my foreskin for about a year now, and I'm avoiding touching the head of my penis directly. Should I be concerned about this change in color?
The brown coloration on the area of your penis head could be due to a variety of reasons, including pigmentation changes, fungal infection, or even a benign mole. Since it has been present for a year and is not causing any symptoms, it is less likely to be a concerning issue. However, it is important to have it evaluated by a healthcare professional to rule out any serious conditions.
