Question

I've been feeling this burning sensation inside the skin of my penis after masturbating, and it's kind of worrying me. Plus, after a while, there's this white substance that appears when I move the skin, and honestly, it's pretty uncomfortable and making it hard for me to masturbate. What could this be, and should I be concerned about it?

Question

I had an ultrasound 12 days ago which showed a 9 mm stone in my lower ureter causing kidney swelling. Right now I'm taking homeopathy and neeri tablets but I'm not sure if I should keep taking them for 2 months or if surgery is needed. What type of surgery would be best if I need it?
