I've been wondering if having a penis size of 5.5 inches is considered normal. Do you think I need to see a doctor about it?

A penis size of 5.5 inches is within the average range and generally considered normal. If you're not experiencing any discomfort or issues with sexual function, theres no need to consult a doctor. However, if you have concerns about your health or any related symptoms, its always a good idea to discuss them with a healthcare provider.

I'm supposed to take finax 1mg tablets for the next three months, but I've read about side effects like loss of libido and erectile dysfunction. I'm really worried because I'm pretty sexually active and dont want it messing with my sex life. Can anyone give me an idea of how serious these side effects are or how much they might impact me?

My brother has been diagnosed with kidney stones and is in constant pain. The report shows multiple stones can these be treated with medication or will surgery be necessary? The pain seems unbearable for him and we're really worried about the next steps.

Kidney stones are painful, and whether they can be treated with medication or require surgery depends on their size, location, and the severity of the pain. Some stones may pass on their own with increased fluid intake and pain medication, while others may require procedures like extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) or surgery

I'm considering the ED1000 shock wave treatment that my doctor mentioned to help with my condition, but I'm a bit worried about potential side effects. Can you tell me if there are any risks involved? Also, I'm trying to find hospitals in Bangalore where they perform this therapy, and it would be helpful to know the cost. Would appreciate your advice.

nothing will happen.
