I can't pull back my foreskin and found out it might be phimosis. I read that circumcision is the usual treatment but is there any other option like creams or non-surgical methods to fix this?

You can tie a weight or traction device, sometimes called a penile extender, to your non-erect penis to try to stretch it. Traction therapy can improve non-erect penis length in some men by up to 2 centimeters (a little more than ¾ of an inch)

I've been having this weird leg pain, mostly in my right leg, and it happens right before I need to pee. The pain goes away once I've urinated. What might be causing this?

The leg pain before urinating, especially in the right leg, could be related to various factors, including urinary tract infections, kidney stones or nerve compression; however, a possible cause is also obturator nerve compression or irritation, which can radiate pain to the leg, especially before urinating, and relief after passing urine.

I have a 9.5 mm stone in my right kidney and a 4.5 mm one in the left can these pass naturally or do I need meds to help break them down? Really hoping to avoid surgery if possible.

Stones under 5 mm often pass naturally; 9.5 mm may need lithotripsy or stenting. Hydration, tamsulosin, and pain control are important until reviewed by a urologist.
