Question 1

I'm a bit worried about my urine test results. It showed pus cells at 18-20, but I think the normal range is around 5. I'm experiencing shivering, headaches, and general weakness. I just did a urine culture test and will get the results in 72 hours. Until then, is there anything specific I should do or be concerned about?

Question 2

I've noticed that the glans on my penis looks kind of wrinkled, even when it's erect, and there's also a small bump near the opening on the glans. There's no pain, but it's kinda worrying me because I'm not sure what's going on. Can you help me figure out what this might be?

Question 3

I've had a 13 mm kidney stone in my right kidney for the past two months and have been taking homeopathic medicine. No pain or issues so far should I keep waiting for it to pass naturally or consider surgery? Feeling really anxious about what to do next

Found a 5.2 mm kidney stone with focal caliectasis on my KUB CT scan today. What's the next step should I consider surgery or can this be managed with medication? Attached my report for reference.
