View allI'm doing daily masturbation and I'm wondering if it could affect anything health-wise. Are there any side effects I should be worried about? Would appreciate some guidance.

I'm dealing with this terrible pain because of a 3.5 mm kidney stone in my right kidney that has been hurting like crazy for the last two weeks. I met a doctor, but they just suggested painkiller injections and said that the stone is too small for an operation. They did recommend some blood tests, and I'm not sure what to make of the results. Is the pain only because of the kidney stone, or could it be something else? Should I consider surgery anyway, or are there medications or precautions that could help? Also, could you suggest a good nephrologist in Kolkata who might be able to help me? If theres a specific diet I should follow, Id love to know about that too. I'm really struggling here, and it's affecting my work a lot.
Make sure to drink plenty of water to help flush out the stone. Avoid foods high in oxalates such as spinach, beets, and nuts, as they can contribute to the formation of kidney stones. As for the abnormal blood test results, your elevated WBC count and low MCHC may indicate an infection. It would be advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and possible antibiotic treatment if deemed necessary. You can request your doctor to prescribe moderate to strong painkillers to achieve relief from pain.
