Most people urinate between six and eight times a day. But if you're drinking plenty, it's not abnormal to go as many as 10 times a day.

I woke up this morning with really bad pain and found out I have a 10mm stone stuck in my ureter at the EVJ. I'm worried I might need surgery. Is there a chance homeopathic medicine could help me avoid surgery? And if it doesnt work, would a lithotripsy be a good alternative? My whole family has issues with uric acid, so I think it might be a uric acid stone.

For a 10mm calculi stuck in the ureter, it is unlikely that homeopathic medicines alone will be effective in passing the stone. Surgery may be necessary in this case, especially if the stone is causing severe pain or obstruction. Lithotripsy, a procedure that uses shock waves to break up the stone, may be a suitable option for a 10mm stone. However, the choice of treatment will depend on various factors including the specific characteristics of the stone and your overall health. It is important to consult with a urologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

Are bananas good for urinary tract infections (UTIs)?

Bananas and other fiber-rich foods are indeed good for preventing urinary tract infections. They aid proper bowel movement, which helps keep pressure off of the urinary tract. So urine flow is unobstructed, ensuring that bacteria build-up does not happen.

I'm feeling a bit concerned because all of a sudden my foreskin has gotten really tight. Could this be some kind of infection? It's started to hurt after I get an erection, and I'm not sure what could be causing it. Do you think this is something I should be worried about?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is tight and difficult to retract. This can be due to inflammation or infection. I recommend using a topical steroid cream like Betamethasone 0.05% twice a day on the tight area for 4-6 weeks. If the symptoms persist, circumcision may be necessary to relieve the tightness and pain.
