My Answers

I have to get an orchiectomy. Can I have an implant inserted immediately? What's the process like for getting an implant?
Yes, your urologist can implant at the same surgery. READ MORE
Protein in urine question
A very small amount of protein is usually not a problem, but specific large amounts may be due to kidney failure. Your primary care physician can perform blood work to estimate the level of of kidney disease, if it exists. You may also be referred to a Nephrologist, the kidney "function" specialist. READ MORE
I can't seem to control my bladder. Do I need surgery?
You need a full evaluation. There may NOT be a need for surgery. It depends on the etiology (cause). Sometimes Kegel Exercises or Physical Therapy can help improve or alleviate the incontinence. If that fails, medication can also be helpful for certain "incontinence types". READ MORE
pain after vasectomy
Pain after a Vasectomy is usually minimal if local analgesics are used at the time of surgery. If you believe it is more than expected, notify the surgeon. READ MORE
I have interstitial cystitis. Are there certain foods I should avoid? If so, which ones?
Interstitial Cystitis, we believe, is due to the absence of a "protective coating/lining" in certain parts of the bladder. This can cause irritation in the exposed areas when eating very acidic foods or drinking certain beverages. By the way, Cranberry can often worsen Interstitial Cystitis symptoms. You can look up the list of food items online. READ MORE
Concern about my testicle
It is very common that one testicle is larger than the other; and on occasion may seem more mobile. You may want to also get checked for a possible inguinal hernia. READ MORE
UTIs (male) with no symptoms?
Women can sometimes have bacteria in the urine with no actual inflammatory infection, men usually, not. Make sure your primary physician locates a source of the bacteria. If not, a urologist can usually. READ MORE
Sticky and inflamed glans penis
This requires direct visualizaton and treatment by a urologist. Make an appointment and get checked properly. Sometimes an Infectious Disease physician can advise also. READ MORE
Penis pump possible injury
This requires a physician to visualize and palpate the area. It is best you make an appointment with a Urologist. It is also best to avoid using the pump again until you have seen your doctor. READ MORE
prostate
Yes, the urethral lining within the prostatic portion of the urethra is removed during a standard TURP procedure. READ MORE
Hi I wonder what i have?
Small to medium Hydroceles usually do not call discomfort. Large hyfroceles can make the scrotum feel "heavy". Torsion Testes is usually very painful and require an immediate Emergency Room visit and surgical correction. Maybe see your primary care physician first, and later a Urologist if requested., since your discomfort is very minimal. READ MORE
UTI infection question
Local urinary tract infection in the bladder does not usually affect the memory. Widespread urinary infection that is in the kidney or urinary infection that causes bacteremia (Bacteria in the blood stream) can be life-threatening and affect memory at the time. READ MORE
Abdominal X-ray results
Yes, "it seems" that the report is rather normal. However, You should ALWAYS get a response from the ordering physician. Always! Do call him or her and be sure the findings are okay and acceptable. READ MORE
About herpes
These lesions appear ulverative, as herpes may be at certain stages. Best to see a urologist or infectious disesae physician if your physician can't get you in soon. Also, best to AVOID intercourse and sexual activity until further notice by your physician. READ MORE
Numbness right ball/pulling into basin
I'm a bit confused by your terminology. Maybe a complete study which checks blood flow is needed also...a Testicular ultrasound-doppler study. READ MORE
Pain in left testicule
It's possible that the pain may resolve in a couple of weeks, if rather mild. If it becomes moderate, you need to make sure the surgeon is aware as he/she may want to examine you. READ MORE
Spots reappearing on penis.
Ingrown hairs may be what you are seeing, but a good Dermatologist can not only diagnose your problem but also help treat and possibly alleviate the condition. READ MORE
Bladder stone
Not a good idea to travel with a sizeable bladder stone. You need to speak with the urologist and ask him/her what is the chance that the stone may be stuck in the urethra and cause difficulty urinating, etc. READ MORE
Pain in cock
Yes, best to schedule an office visit with a Urologist.., to deter long term damage and problems with function. READ MORE
Uti
If you have a Urinary Tract Infection, it is best to take the antibiotic (the Amoxicillin) as prescribed. AZO usually helps alleviate symptoms only, but does not actually treat the underlying condition, the UTI. READ MORE
