What do I have?

A few weeks ago I noticed some small lumps on my penis (slightly larger than those that new hairs grow from) at first I thought nothing of it.

After a few weeks the lumps were slowly getting bigger, they are not not massive but an unusual size. One is slightly red but they are not sore or painfull.

I have not participated in sexual activities with someone who has similar symptoms.

What do I have wrong with me? And how do I cure it?

Can genital warts disappear without any treatment whatsoever?

Warticon works but used too often and then warts usually reappear in new places, would it be better to just leave them to go away by themselves? Or are they more likely to multiply/get even bigger? Thanks.

Why doesn't someone invent something to take into hospital to check the cleanness of your bed and surroundings

It would be useful to have a gadget that checks the levels of bacteria in and around your bed, so you could take the appropriate action. Its seems all uk hospitals are very unclean and you take your life in your own hands going into one.

Also, for visitors, something to stop them walking through the door untill they use the achol gel. I recently was visting someone and the amount of people that just walked past the gel was amazing.

How can I help my child feel normal in gym class when he has a heart condition?

My 12 year old son has Vulvar Pumlonary Stinosis and is on a weight lifting restriction now but may have a running restriction next year. Today, the gym teacher called and said my son looked distressed while running a mile. So, he had made him walk the rest of the way. My son, angry, sat on the bleachers and cried after the run was over.

The teacher explained to me that they will be doing a lot of cardio this year and suggested a heart rate monitor. The teacher feels bad and understands that my son does not want to be "different", but he is scared and so am I. My son just wants to be like the other kids.

You really wouldn't know there is anything wrong with him by looking at him. He is the most normal kid and he wants everyone to continue to see him that way.

Do you have any suggestions?

What extremes do you go to to avoid germs ?

After washing my hands in a public toilet, I always take an extra length of tissue to cover my hand when opening the exit door. People wash their hands then just grab these handles without thinking. They are full of germs from the people that just dont bother. Its not enough to just wash your hands in public places, you've got to think about cross transfer germs which are present on all fixed touchable objects!
