I've been bed humping since I was a kid, like maybe from 6th or 7th grade. Now that I'm having real sex, my penis gets hard at first but then it just doesn't stay that way. Is there something wrong, or is it normal? What can I do about it?

I've been having this weird leg pain, mostly in my right leg, and it happens right before I need to pee. The pain goes away once I've urinated. What might be causing this?

The leg pain before urinating, especially in the right leg, could be related to various factors, including urinary tract infections, kidney stones or nerve compression; however, a possible cause is also obturator nerve compression or irritation, which can radiate pain to the leg, especially before urinating, and relief after passing urine.

For the past few months, I've been dealing with a burning sensation when I pee and having to push hard to empty my bladder. The flow is slow, not smooth, and sometimes splits into multiple streams. My doctor thinks it's likely a stricture and suggested surgery. Are there other treatment options? Also, I've noticed a sudden drop in libido and weaker erections could this be connected?

A urethral stricture can cause these symptoms; options like dilation or endoscopic urethrotomy may be tried before surgery.
