I'm married and have been trying for a month to have intercourse with my wife, but I'm having issues because I can't maintain an erection. It's affecting our intimacy, and I'm worried because I can't satisfy her fully. It's bending and not working as it should. What could be the cause of this? What can I do to resolve it?

You may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. I recommend you try using Viagra (Sildenafil) 50mg to 100mg about 1 hour before sexual activity. This medication can help improve blood flow to the penis and support a stronger erection. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

I'm noticing a problem when I go to the bathroom. After I finish urinating, there are still a few drops that keep coming out for about 5 minutes afterward. I'm a bit concerned about what's causing this and what I can do about it. Could you help me understand what's going on and suggest any possible treatments?

So, I'm a bit worried about my 7-month-old son. He's got hydronephrosis in his left kidney and there's this PUJ obstruction. The doctor is saying he might need surgery. I'm just wondering, how can we tell if this is getting worse? Should we consider going ahead with the surgery or is there a chance it might get better on its own if we wait a bit?

To monitor the progression of your son's hydronephrosis with PUJ obstruction, your doctor may recommend regular ultrasound scans (every 3-6 months) to assess kidney function, drainage, and signs of deterioration; additionally, nuclear medicine studies like MAG3 or DMSA scans may be performed to evaluate kidney function and obstruction; surgery is often recommended for PUJ obstruction to prevent long-term kidney damage, but the timing depends on the severity of the obstruction, kidney function, and your child's overall health
