I've got some meftal spas tablets at home. Is it okay to take them for kidney stone pain since my family doctor prescribed them to me before? I'm a bit worried and want to make sure it's safe.

Focal gliosis in the right posterior periventricular region indicates:

  • Gliosis: Scarring or reactive change in brain tissue
  • Periventricular region: Area surrounding the ventricles (fluid-filled spaces) in the brain

Possible causes:

  1. Past injury or infection
  2. Stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA)
  3. Demyelinating diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis)
  4. Tumors or cysts

Treatment and seriousness depend on underlying cause:

  1. If caused by past injury or infection, treatment might focus on managing symptoms.
  2. If related to demyelinating disease or tumor, treatment may involve disease-modifying therapies or surgery.

Recommendation:

Consult a neurologist or neurosurgeon for:

  1. Detailed evaluation
  2. Determining underlying cause
  3. Developing a personalized treatment plan

I'm a bit concerned after having sex for the first time this past Friday night. I've noticed some pain in my penis because the skin seems to have peeled. The front part has gotten pretty red too. The pain's a bit better than a couple of days ago, but it's still there. Do you have any advice on what I should do?

To alleviate the discomfort, apply a topical antibiotic cream, keep the area clean, and avoid further irritation if the pain persists, or you experience difficulty urinating, increased redness, or swelling, consult a urologist for further guidance.

I'm a bit concerned about my penis length, it's about 15cm. I'm not sure if that's enough for a good sexual life and it's affecting my confidence a little. Should I be worried about this?

A penis length of 15 cm is within the average range, and it's important to remember that sexual satisfaction is influenced by many factors, such as emotional connection, communication, and overall health. Confidence and intimacy are more significant than size, so don't worry; focus on building a healthy relationship and self-confidence.
