Question

I have a 15 mm stone in my right kidney at the PUJ and a 9 mm stone in my left kidney, both causing mild hydronephrosis. My doctor recommended laser surgery with a stent, but I'm wondering how long I can delay this procedure. Are there any homeopathic medicines that could dissolve stones this size? My serum creatinine is 1.13, and I've attached my KUB sonography results.

Large PUJ stones with hydronephrosis need surgery soon—homeopathy is unlikely to work; delay risks kidney damage.

Question

I'm really worried about my cousin because he still has some penile discharge even after taking medication for a confirmed STD. It's very little but still makes him uncomfortable. He's interested in doing an STD test, but not for HIV, and he's in Pune. Could you guide us on where he can get that done?

Question

I'm experiencing some severe pain in my right testicle along with pain in my lower and mid-back on the right side. I'm wondering if this could be caused by prone masturbation? Could you advise me on who I should consult for this issue? Also, are there any painkillers you can recommend?

Question

I found out that I have a 4.5mm calculus in my left kidney, and now I'm really worried about what I should eat to keep these stones from forming again. I already drink about 3 liters of water every day, so I'm wondering if there's a specific diet I should follow. What do you recommend?
