Do I have an STD?
It is most likely a sebaceous cyst, which is not sexually transmitted. and can be removed. It should have no bearing on your sex drive. However, a diagnosis can't be made without looking at it. See a doctor. READ MORE
I have a question about the scrotum u/s doppler?
It sounds like a very strange way of describing a varicoclele, dilated and tortuous veins. 10% of men have them. more common in taller and thinner men. There is a small chance that they can harm sperm production, and occasionally can be painful. Follow up with the doctor who ordered the test and she should be able to help you better with them. At least that is my read, though its an unclear report. READ MORE
Query On Semen?

Is it normal to even have a trace of blood in urine?
Depending on your other risk factors (history of smoking, family history of kidney or bladder cancer, etc.) and findings on microscopic evaluation (not a dip stick), an ultrasound of the kidney and a possible look in the bladder may be warranted. A single dipstick being positive may be a false positive. READ MORE
Curved penis?
Is this with erection or all the time? Though on and off pain in the testicle is not uncommon, it should be evaluated by a physician. READ MORE
Can a UTI make it difficult to urinate?
Yes. However, of more significance is concern over a young man having a UTI. This is very unusual, and should be evaluated by a physician. READ MORE
Is kidney surgery high risk in teenagers?
His age of 14 should not change the degree of risk of surgery. It's not clear from your question what type of surgery and why. This can be from very simple endoscopic surgery through the bladder, to laparoscopic surgery for blockage of kidney or other congenital issues (things that he was born with). Every surgery carries risks, but in experienced hands rate of complications are generally very low. Make sure you discuss rationale, risks, benefits, and alternative treatments with your physician.

The doctor has managed him correctly. Yes, most likely there should be no long-term bad results. He is irritated from what he has done, but should resolved in time, as long as he does not have an infection. Best wishes. READ MORE

No. READ MORE
Blood in urine?
I am assuming you are also seeing blood in urine since its in the title of your question. In a 25 year old, the most common reason to have left sided severe pain, feeling ill (nausea) and having blood in your urine is a kidney stone. If its down close to your bladder, it can also make you go frequently. An x-ray can some times show the stone, as well as a ct scan, and you can be counseled on best options. your doctor will run addition urine tests on you and possibly an ultrasound. If your pain is very strong, you should seek medical care immediately. READ MORE
Why has my foreskin become tight?
You most likely has balanitis, an inflammation/infection of the foreskin and head of the penis. This is most commonly due to yeast infection. A trial of over-the-counter lotrimin cream applied twice a day may help. Keep it dry also. If very tight and not getting better, see a urologist. READ MORE
How can I prevent a UTI during my pregnancy?
Two things that can reduce your risk, or staying regular, and avoiding sex. Higher level of progesterone during pregnancy causes constipation. Make sure you do what is needed. Second, avoid sexual activity, or consider taking an antibiotic which is safe for pregnancy when you are sexually active as a single dose. Ask your OB about it. READ MORE
Peyronies disease?
Although some curvature can be a normal part of anatomy, new curvature is most likely due to peyronie's. READ MORE
PVR Test?
Discuss with your doctor, but after a turp, you should be able to stop both your flomax and proscar. As for post-void residual, unless yours was very high before the surgery, and you were in near retention, there is not much to be concerned about. Regardless, there is nothing to prepare for it. Drink a normal amount of water. When you arrive at your doctor's office, he will ask you to do your best to empty your bladder and will check your residual. READ MORE
Can you get a UTI from sexual intercourse?
Urinary tract infections are very uncommon in men, and are not sexually transferred. Yeast infection can be transferred. READ MORE
My urine smell is very strong. Is there a problem?
It could be, and certainly, if you are going to the bathroom more frequently or having any discomfort, you need medical attention. It also could be related to your diet. READ MORE
