I have a 9.2 mm stone in my left kidney can it pass with medicine or will I need surgery? I'm worried about the size and if it's too big to remove naturally. What are my options?

For larger stones (> 4 mm), medical treatment is often required to enable kidney stones to be passed through the body. Common methods of care include soundwave therapy, surgery, and using a ureteroscope.

Question

I'm alone with my father-in-law since my husband is out of town. He has an enlarged prostate, and I'm worried because he doesn't sleep well at night. I thought about giving him Avil 25, but I read online that it's not safe for someone with an enlarged prostate. I'm really concerned about what I should do. Do you think it's okay to give him this medication, or should I consider something else? Please let me know what would be best.

Question

I'm a bit confused and worried about having an uncircumcised penis. Is there anything I should be considering if I want to get circumcised, or is there any issue with remaining uncircumcised? I've included a photo that resembles mine. Could you provide some advice?

Question

I've noticed that my penis, when flaccid and stretched, tends to bend to the left at about a 30 to 40-degree angle. I'm worried if this is normal. Is there any way to fix it, maybe some device that could help straighten it out? I'm really looking for some guidance on how I can get my flaccid bend straightened. Any advice would be really appreciated.
