Question 1

I've done a semen culture test and it says I have a bacteria called staphylococcus aureus with moderate growth. I'm not sure what this means. I had a urinary infection a year ago that didn't seem to go away, and after some tests, I found out I had a bacteria called proteus which got cured with medicine. But now, a month after treatment, the semen test is showing this new bacteria. Can you explain what staphylococcus aureus is and which type of doctor I should talk to about fixing this issue?

Accepted Answer

The presence of Staphylococcus aureus (moderate growth) in your semen culture test indicates a bacterial infection, which can cause symptoms like discharge, pain, or inflammation; given your history of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and previous bacterial infection (Proteus), consult a urologis

Question 2

I'm feeling a sort of pull on one side of my testis, and there's this white-colored fluid that's continuously flowing from my peni. It's making me really concerned. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

Question 3

I'm noticing that my stamina isn't what it used to be and I'm worried about my performance. Plus, I feel like my penis isn't as strong as it should be. Do you have any suggestions for boosting my stamina and strengthening my penis?

Accepted Answer

I understand your concern. The risk of HIV transmission through a small cut on your ear from an infected barber is relatively low.

_Risk Assessment_

1. _HIV transmission_: HIV transmission requires direct contact with infected blood, semen, or other bodily fluids. The risk of transmission through a small cut on your ear is low.
2. _Hepatitis BC transmission_: Hepatitis BC transmission is more likely than HIV through blood contact. However, the risk is still relatively low.

_Precautions and Next Steps_

1. _Seek medical attention_: Consult a doctor immediately and report the incident. They will assess the risk and provide guidance.
2. _Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP)_: Your doctor may recommend PEP, a medication that can prevent HIV infection if taken within 72 hours of exposure.
3. _Hepatitis BC screening_: Your doctor may recommend screening for hepatitis BC.
4. _Report the incident_: Inform the salon management and local health authorities about the incident.

Please prioritize your health and seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Accepted Answer

Bilateral varicocele with discomfort, especially in the left testicle, may sometimes require surgery if symptoms persist. The most common option is laparoscopic varicocelectomy, which has fewer complications and a quicker recovery time compared to open surgery. It's best to discuss your symptoms and treatment options with your urologist to see if surgery is necessary in your case.
