I've recently started having sex without using a condom, and I've noticed that my frenulum is bleeding. Is this something that's common, or should I be concerned?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It is not uncommon for the frenulum to tear or bleed during vigorous sexual activity, especially without the use of lubrication. To help with the healing process and prevent infection, you can apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day and keep the area clean. It is also recommended to abstain from sexual activity until the area has fully healed to prevent further injury.

View allI've been wondering if masturbation has any connection to premature ejaculation. Like, does it cause it or make it worse? Also, how can I tell if I'm actually dealing with premature ejaculation? It would be great to get some clarity on this.
Masturbation itself doesn't cause premature ejaculation, but excessive or hurried habits may affect control. Premature ejaculation is typically defined as ejaculating within a minute of penetration or before the person wishes, and it often causes distress or relationship issues. If this happens frequently, it might be helpful to consult a healthcare provider.

I've had my kidney stent removed about a month ago, but I'm still having some pain in my side abdomen and my back pretty often. Is this normal, or could it indicate another issue? I'm really worried and could use some guidance.
It is not uncommon to experience some pain in the side abdomen and back after a kidney stent removal procedure. However, if the pain is persistent or severe, it could be a sign of a urinary tract infection or kidney stone. I recommend taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, drink plenty of water to help flush out any potential kidney stones. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I have a 4.5 mm stone stuck in my upper ureter causing grade 1 hydronephrosis. Will drinking lots of water and taking meds help pass it, or do I need surgery for this?
