I've been having this strange ache coming from the inside of my testicle whenever I'm driving or just going about my day. It gets worse when I try to massage it. Could someone give me some advice via email? I'd really feel more comfortable if it was from a female doctor.

It sounds like you may be experiencing testicular discomfort, which could be related to a few different issues, such as muscle strain or an underlying condition like epididymitis or varicocele. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for a proper examination and diagnosis. If you prefer a female doctor, I suggest looking for one in your area or through telemedicine platforms.

View allI'm pretty worried because during sex I accidentally cut my frenulum and it bled quite a bit. The bleeding stopped after a while, but it's been a couple of days now, and I feel pain when my penis gets hard. It's strange because the pain comes and goes throughout the day, but there's none when I pee or otherwise. I read somewhere that I shouldn't panic and it might heal on its own in a few weeks, but I'd really like to know if there's any medication or treatment I could use to recover faster. Any advice would be really helpful.
Based on your description, it sounds like you have experienced a frenulum tear. To help with the pain and promote healing, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen. I recommend taking ibuprofen 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. Additionally, applying an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to the affected area twice a day can help prevent infection and aid in healing. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. In case of persistent or worsening symptoms, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've had a 12mm kidney stone that showed up on a CT scan on 8417, and although I didn't have issues with it at first, I've been dealing with constant back pain for the past three days, especially after eating or drinking anything. I thought it might be muscle pain and took ibuprofen, but that only made things worse. Last week, I felt nauseous and vomited for three days straight, and while I haven't vomited since 9617, the nausea is still hanging around. I'm starting to worry and wonder if it's time to see a doctor or head to the ER. Is the ER the best choice in my situation?
Patient may require surgery since the stone size is 12mm, surgery opinion for further management.

I had right inguinal hernia and varicocele surgery with mesh on the right side about 3 months ago but I'm still having pain in the areas marked with green dots in the photo I attached - is this normal or should I be concerned about the pain continuing this long after surgery
While some pain after hernia and varicocele surgery is normal, persistent pain three months post-surgery, especially in the areas marked in your photo, should be evaluated by your doctor. Though pain can persist for a few months, lasting pain beyond that is considered chronic and may indicate complications like nerve damage or inflammation.
