I've been having this pain on the right side below my chest for the last two days, especially when I breathe and yawn. I've also been burping all day. This started after I was fasting on Saturday and had liquid fasting on Monday. I did take a gas tablet yesterday, but the pain is still there today when I woke up. I can't visit a hospital right now because of the lockdown and the situation outside. Do you think this could just be gas pain?

I'm really worried because an ultrasound has shown that I have a 6mm gallbladder stone, and there's also an infection. I've been having really bad pain in my abdomen and feeling nauseous all the time. What do you think I should do about it? Is this something I need to urgently take care of, or are there ways to manage this without surgery?
I understand your concern, and I'm here to provide you with some reassurance and guidance. _Masturbation and Penis Size_ Masturbation, in itself, does not cause a decrease in penis size or width. However, frequent and aggressive masturbation can lead to: 1. _Desensitization_: Reduced sensitivity due to over-stimulation. 2. _Inflammation_: Mild inflammation or irritation, which can cause temporary swelling or changes in penis size. _Thinning and Shortening of the Penis_ The thinning and shortening you've observed could be due to various factors, such as: 1. _Normal fluctuations_: Penis size can vary due to factors like temperature, arousal, and overall health. 2. _Erectile dysfunction_: Infrequent or inconsistent erections can cause the penis to appear smaller. 3. _Peyronie's disease_: A condition characterized by the formation of scar tissue, leading to curvature or shortening of the penis. 4. _Other medical conditions_: Certain conditions, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or hormone imbalances, can affect penis size. _What to Do_ To alleviate your concerns: 1. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with a urologist or a primary care physician to discuss your concerns and rule out any underlying medical conditions. 2. _Reduce masturbation frequency_: Try to reduce your masturbation frequency to 2-3 times a week to give your penis time to recover. 3. _Practice gentle masturbation techniques_: Avoid aggressive or rough handling of your penis during masturbation. 4. _Maintain a healthy lifestyle_: Focus on a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management to promote overall health and well-being.

I was just diagnosed with a hiatus hernia and I'm a bit worried - can this be managed with meds or will I need surgery? I'm not sure how serious it is and what the best treatment options are
A hiatal hernia is a condition where a part of the stomach pushes up into the chest through an opening in the diaphragm. While many people with hiatal hernias don't experience symptoms and don't need treatment, others may experience symptoms like heartburn or acid reflux that can be managed with lifestyle changes and medications. In some cases, especially with large or symptomatic hernias, surgery may be needed to repair the hernia
