I've noticed that the skin on the upper part of my penis doesn't open up properly, and the last time I had sex, it started bleeding and was really painful. I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you give me some advice?

It sounds like you may have experienced a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to retract fully. It's important to avoid any further trauma to the area. I recommend seeing a healthcare provider, preferably a urologist, for a proper examination and treatment options, which may include topical treatments or, in some cases, a minor surgical procedure.

I've been experiencing something really concerning and I'm not sure what to do. About a month ago, after masturbating, I noticed blood in my urine for a day, but then it cleared up, so I stopped masturbating for about 23 days because I was scared. When I started again, there wasn't any blood at first. But then on March 11th, the bleeding happened again after I masturbated, and this time I also felt pain in my penis. It went away after a day, but then came back after a few days. I'm worried about why this is happening and what it could mean. Can you give me some advice?

It sounds like you may have experienced some irritation or injury to the urinary tract or reproductive organs during masturbation, which can occasionally cause blood in the urine. However, recurring blood in urine, especially with pain, should be evaluated by a healthcare professional to rule out conditions like infections, stones, or other underlying issues. Please consider seeking a consultation with a urologist for a proper diagnosis and peace of mind.

I had kidney stone laser surgery a month ago and was regularly going to the gym before that. The anesthesia was given on my spine during the operation does it weaken the bones? Can I start going to the gym again regularly or are there any exercise limitations I should know about

Gymming after kidney stone treatment can be beneficial for your overall health, but it's essential to take it slow and follow medical advice. While it's tempting to jump back into your regular routine, easing into exercise will give your body the time it needs to heal.

I have a cyst in my scrotum and I'm really worried about it. Are there any other treatment options besides surgery that might help? I'd prefer to avoid an operation if possible. What can I do to manage it or make it go away?

Generally, these cysts don't cause any symptoms. However, they may cause feelings of heaviness or a dull ache in the scrotum. There are no known risk factors for cysts, and they rarely require treatment. In cases where cysts cause symptoms, such as pain, surgery may be recommended.
