I'm wondering how soon I can have sex now that my kidney stent has been removed. I had a ureteroscopy and laser surgery on May 11, 2017, to take out a stone from my kidney, and they left a stent in for two weeks. It was just removed yesterday, and my urine is mostly clear now, with just a bit of blood. Can you advise me on whether it's safe to resume sexual activity and if there are any precautions I should take?

After the removal of your kidney stent, its generally safe to resume sexual activity once any discomfort or bleeding has subsided and you're feeling comfortable. However, it's important to listen to your bodyif there's still slight bleeding or discomfort, its best to wait a few more days. Always consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

View allI'm having some trouble managing my sexual urges, and it's impacting my focus on my career. I find myself masturbating at least twice a week, and I'm currently single with no plans to get married. I really enjoy sex but prefer being alone. Lately, I've noticed my erections are not as strong or lasting as they used to be. Are there any operations or medications that can help control these feelings? I'd appreciate any advice.

I've got a 7.5mm stone causing wave-like pain in my lower back and abdomen how can I pass it naturally or do I need surgery? Could it damage my kidneys or other organs if it stays too long?
A 7.5mm kidney stone causing wave-like pain in your lower back and abdomen is likely to require medical intervention, such as surgery, or procedures like lithotripsy to break it down, as it's less likely to pass naturally. If the stone remains lodged in the ureter, it can cause severe pain, increase the risk of infection or kidney damage, and potentially impact other organs over time.

I've heard that the foreskin should roll back completely, but mine doesnt quite do that. The front part rolls back, but the back seems to stay attached to my penis. How can I get it to roll back completely and expose the red part?
The issue you're describing is related to a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is partially or completely unable to retract over the glans penis; to address this, gently stretch the foreskin over time through manual retraction, using lubricants to reduce friction, and consider consulting a urologist or healthcare professional for guidance on proper technique and potential treatment options, such as topical creams or, in severe cases, circumcision.
