Answered on 23rd May '24
In men, a value under 3.1 ng/ml for PSA is considered as normal for your uncle's age. Yet, there is a need to consider the fact that the PSA is only a single-screen examination and it does not provide a complete and accurate diagnosis. It is better to see a urologist for a comprehensive evaluation and has more information on prostate health care.

I'm 26 yrs old . I have just feel a fluid type in my right testis. Doctor says it's a normal issue so he gave me some medicines . Ultrasound shows a minimal hydrocele tested by a radiologist I have go to urologist doctor he just gave me tabs . Now after 15 days I don't feel any recovery Thanks
Male | 26
The pathological status of the testis (HC) is called where the fluid collects around the testicle. It is a source of swelling and heaviness. The tablets the urologist gave you should be able to reduce the swelling, but in case of no effect within two weeks, you should see your doctor. Sometimes, it only requires more time or a different way of treatment.

Mam i had an un protective exposure before 8 months with a married person after 6 months from the exposure i had a penil discharge and pain while urinating symptoms found and i tested all std panel test its all showing negative results but still i have pain on penis please help me with this concern
Male | 30
If you have pain and discharge from your penis, that might be due to an infection. Sometimes those infections (like urinary tract infections or prostatitis) don’t show up on STD tests. It’s important to have a full check with a urologist and maybe some other tests to work out what’s going on. Once we know what’s wrong some treatments work well.

Stinging uti with no infection
Male | 29
Sometimes you may have an uncomfortable, stinging feeling when urinating. There may be no infection. This could be caused by irritation in your bladder or urethra. It could happen because certain foods or drinks irritate your system. Drinking more water and avoiding irritants like caffeine and spicy foods may help ease that stinging sensation.

I got leprascopic surgery to remove stone in urain now dr attached stent in urain pipe can we do sex with wife
Male | 35
The stent in your urinary pipe may cause trouble, but it creates the urine flow. Concerning sex, it's most supported if you postpone the activity until your urologist says that it is okay. Having sex can mean that the stent is displaced, you may feel pain or see some drops of blood.

I'm 19 yo male, I start feeling pain in my left side of testicle sack and maybe it's bit swollen. Also having a stomache. The pain started 3 days ago.
Male | 19
Maybe you are suffering from a condition called Epididymitis. This is when the tube behind your testicle gets inflamed, thus leading to pain and swelling. The abdominal pain you're having might be linked to this. This inflammation may occur due to infections or injuries. For more healing effects, try to rest, apply cold packs on your testis, and take pain relief medicine. Though it's better you consult a urologist for the right therapy.

I'm experiencing pain/irritation in urethra when I don't drink enough water. it goes away when I drink lot of water or wash it with warm water. This is happening very frequently nowadays. If I don't drink enough water, I know that this problem is going to happen to me. This has become very frequent in last few weeks. I don't know what is the problem
Female | 22
You are probably suffering from a disease called urethritis. It means your urethra is inflamed which is why you are in pain when you don't drink enough water. Insufficient drinking of water can result in urine being more concentrated, thus irritating the urethra. Consuming a lot of water can aid in the dilution of urine, and washing with warm water can also relieve the irritation. Visit a urologist for further treatment.
