Question

My dad just had an ultrasound done, and they found an 11 mm stone in his right kidney. He's not feeling any pain or discomfort right now. Should we be considering surgery, or are there medications that might help with this? What do you think?

11mm is a big stone. It is unlikely to pass on its own. Better to get it removed

Question

I'm having this consistent mild pain in my testicle, mostly on the left side. My doctor thought it might be epididymitis and put me on antibiotics, but it's been three weeks and I'm still in pain and feeling uncomfortable. I've had ultrasounds for my scrotum, kidneys, and bladder, and everything seems normal. I also got my testosterone levels checked, and it's at 327 ngdL. Is this a normal situation, or should I be worried about something else going on?

Question

I've been experiencing this weird sensation where it feels like my urine is getting stuck in my urethra. My bladder thickness came out normal in tests, and I had a prevoid volume of 584ml and postvoid of 44ml. The prostate is supposed to be normal at 20.4 grams, but I have noticed there's less pressure when I try to pee in the morning. This has been going on for about 67 years, and even when I had it checked earlier, the doctor said everything seemed fine. He even applied pressure inside my anus, and some liquid came out of my penis, but tests showed no infection. I'm just confused about what's happening. Could you help me understand what might be causing this?

Question

I've been told there's a calculus in my left kidney and the pelvis size is 137mm. I'm really worried and trying to figure out if the best way to handle this is through surgery or medication. What would you recommend?
