View allI'm noticing some really concerning changes with my penile skin. After I masturbate, the skin on the head turns black, red, and purple, and I'm seeing several black spots even when I don't masturbate. It doesnt hurt or itch, but it kind of looks like the blood vessels might be broken. What could be causing this?

I have left reanal hydronephrosis with a 7mm ureteric calculus in the lower part and a small 3mm concretion in the lower calyx of my left kidney should I consider medicine or is surgery the better option here

While a 3mm concretion in the lower calyx may be managed medically, the 7mm stone in the ureter and the associated hydronephrosis suggest a need for more definitive treatment.

I have two kidney stones one is a 13mm stone in my right lower ureter near the iliac vessels with moderate hydroureteronephrosis, and the other is a 5mm stone in the lower pole of my left kidney. My creatinine is 1.13, urea is 18, and uric acid is 8. Is there any chance I can dissolve or pass these stones without surgery? My urologist is recommending urgent surgery because of the swelling in my right ureter, but I'd really like to avoid surgery if possible. Could ESWL be an option for me instead?
It's understandable that you'd want to explore non-surgical options for your kidney stones, especially with the 13mm stone causing moderate hydroureteronephrosis. While the 5mm stone might be a candidate for watchful waiting, the larger stone in your right ureter likely requires a more active approach. ESWL is a possibility for the right ureteral stone, but its effectiveness and suitability depend on factors like stone composition and location. Given the moderate hydroureteronephrosis, your urologist's concern for urgent intervention is justified.
