I've noticed that one of my testicles, the right one specifically, seems to hang lower than it used to. I'm 21 and just had a full body check where everything seemed fine, and the doctor checked my testicles but didn't touch them, just took a good look. I hit the gym pretty regularly and wear tight shortsI'm wondering if that or the lifting might be affecting this. I also have another medical exam soon before I start work on a ship. Could this lower-hanging testicle be something I should worry about?

It's possible that lifting heavy weights or wearing tight shorts could cause some temporary changes in the position of your testicle, but if your doctor didn't find any issues during your last checkup, it likely isn't a cause for concern. However, if you notice persistent discomfort or other symptoms, it's a good idea to mention it during your next medical checkup before heading to the ship.

I'm thinking about using lignocaine jelly because I've heard it can help reduce the sensitivity of the glans penis, but I'm wondering how this might affect the process of getting an erection. I'm planning to apply it, but I'm a bit confused about how it all works together. Could you explain how lignocaine might impact erection and whether it's safe to use for this purpose?
Lignocaine jelly works by numbing the area it is applied to, reducing sensitivity. However, an erection is primarily caused by physical and psychological stimulation, leading to increased blood flow to the penis, not just sensitivity. So, even if the glans penis is less sensitive, the erection can still occur due to these other factors.

I'm dealing with a kidney stone issue that started about 3 months ago. Initially, the stone was 4 mm and the treatment seemed to solve the problem, but now I'm experiencing some pain on my left side again. I've been trying K Mac B6 syrup to help with the stone, but I'm worried about any side effects it might have. Is K Mac B6 actually good for kidney stones, or should I be concerned about using it?
K-Mac B6 syrup may help manage kidney stone symptoms, but its effectiveness and safety vary. Here's a balanced view: Benefits 1. Reduces pain and discomfort 2. Helps dissolve small stones (up to 10 mm) 3. Supports urinary tract health 4. May prevent stone recurrence Potential Side Effects 1. Gastrointestinal issues (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea) 2. Headaches 3. Dizziness 4. Allergic reactions (rare) Precautions 1. Consult a doctor before taking K-Mac B6 syrup, especially if: - You have underlying medical conditions (diabetes, kidney disease) - You take medications (blood thinners, diuretics) - You're pregnant or breastfeeding 1. Monitor urine output, color and consistency 2. Report worsening symptoms or adverse effects to your doctor Alternative Options 1. Consult a urologist for personalized treatment
