My son, who is 2 years and 7 months old, experiences his penis bulging while urinating and returning to normal immediately after. He recently had pain while urinating and was given antibiotics. Now, the pain is gone, but the penis still balloons during urination. Is this a cause for concern, and what should be the next steps?

I received a phone call from my doctor today saying that I showed positive for HSV 2 at 1.79. How likely is it that that can be a false-positive? I have never had any symptoms and this is the first time I've been tested for herpes.

I have had the same partner for almost 2 years and the last 4 months, within minutes after intercourse, he develops a bump (not in the same area every time) that itches and takes a week or less to go away. Why is this all the sudden happening? I’ve been tested and came back fine after my pap. I don’t get anything or have any discomfort, but even with a condom, if my fluids touch his balls or his skin around his private area, he develops something.

I am a 30-year-old mother with herpes for 11 years. I have noticed that after engaging in oral sex, my partners develop symptoms such as mouth bumps, dizziness, abdominal/back pain, nausea, neck/throat pain, and a bad cough. Some also experience changes in penis size and appearance. I have had an STD screening in 2016, which showed only herpes. I am concerned about the recurring symptoms and whether they are related to my herpes. What could be causing these symptoms, and is there a way to manage or cure this issue?

Two weeks out of coronary bypass surgery, my husband's Hemoglobin is 8.9 and Hematocrit is 28.6. Should I take him to the ER? He also has kidney disease and heart disease.
