Had emergency kidney stone surgery last Thursday and still have the urethra stent in. I've called the urologist's office multiple times but keep getting the runaround it's been five days now and I'm really worried. What should I do about getting the stent removed?

It's understandable that you're concerned about the ureteral stent after your emergency kidney stone surgery. After five days, it's important to clarify your situation and get the stent removed. If you haven't been given specific instructions about removing it yourself (with a string attached), you should contact your urologist again and request a removal appointment

I had the surgery on January 18th and still can't ejaculate or get a full erection. My surgeon mentioned it might take 8-12 weeks is that accurate? Why does this happen and will I recover fully?

I've been experiencing a burning sensation in a vein in the area between my thighs, I think it's called the perineum. It started when I walked, and I thought it was because of my pubic hair, so I trimmed them. But then I noticed a thick line from my anus to scrotum, maybe a nerve, that burns whenever it's touched. Now it's really tough for me to walk. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

I recently got an ultrasound done, and it showed that my left kidneys upper calyx is 6.5 cm and the middle calyx is 4 mm. Should I be worried about this causing future problems? Also, I've been taking K Mac B6 syrup for my kidney stones. Could there be any side effects from using this syrup regularly? Would really appreciate some advice.
-It seems like your ultrasound shows a 6.5 cm size in the upper calyx of the left kidney and a 4 mm stone in the middle calyx. While the larger size might need monitoring, the 4 mm stone is small and could pass on its own. K Mac B6 syrup is generally safe
