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.

I'm a bit worried about my foreskin. It only pulls back halfway when my penis is erect, and there's also a tilt towards the left. Do you think circumcision might be necessary? Could you give me some advice on this?

I'm experiencing something a bit unusual and I'm pretty concerned about it. Whenever I'm in the shower and I rub my scrotum, this white-colored substance gets discharged. It's been happening for about 45 months now, and it's not going away. Also, it seems to take about 23 days for this substance to build up again. There's also an unpleasant smell when this stuff comes out. What could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?
