I've noticed that my glans are really sensitive, to the point where it's uncomfortable to touch them. My foreskin retracts just fine without any issues, but I'm wondering if this level of sensitivity is something normal or if I should be concerned about it. Could you help me understand what's going on here?

My dad is scheduled for laser surgery to treat his urinary bladder stone and prostate issue, but the surgeon mentioned he won't operate on the left kidney stone because it's small around 5.5mm. The report also mentioned a cortical cyst, which the surgeon says isn't a stone, but we thought it was a 15mm stone. Can you clarify what this cortical cyst is and what we should do about it?

He just needs prostrate surgery and bladder stone removal. As his left kidney stone is very small and doesn't require surgical intervention. Nothing to worry about cortical cyst.
