I'm really having trouble getting an erection lately no matter what I try, from watching porn to sexting or even phone sex, nothing seems to work. It's starting to worry me, and I feel like I've tried everything. Could there be something wrong or something I'm missing?

It's understandable to feel concerned about this. Difficulty in achieving an erection can be due to stress, anxiety, lifestyle factors, or underlying health issues like hormonal imbalances or circulatory problems. Please consider consulting a doctor to evaluate potential causes and explore effective treatments.

I've had kidney stones for over 20 years with 7 surgeries already. Now there's a 6mm stone at the VUJ and my doctor prescribed cifaxime 200, Uritin 04, and aquzide 12.5. Right now, I only feel sharpness in my penis and discomfort around that area no back pain or bleeding. Can a stone this size pass naturally or do I need to worry?

There are several factors which predict some passage. Size of stone, duration, inflammation etc. Need more information.

I'm feeling a burning sensation at the tip of my penis, especially when I pee. I've been having unprotected sex, and I'm getting really worried. Could it be an infection or something else serious? What should I do next?

Burning sensation in the penis tip area, mostly while urinating, can be a sign of a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted infection. Since you are sexually active and engaging in unprotected intercourse, it is important to get tested for STIs. I recommend you take an antibiotic like Azithromycin 1g as a single dose and Ceftriaxone 250mg intramuscularly. Additionally, drink plenty of water to help flush out any infection. It is also important to practice safe sex to prevent future infections.
