I had kidney stone surgery before and now there's a 10mm stone again causing occasional pain sometimes it's fine what treatment options do I have this is really urgent
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For a 10mm kidney stone that's causing occasional pain, and with a history of previous surgery, treatment options include medical expulsive therapy (MET) with medications to help the stone pass, or a procedure like ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URSL) to break up the stone with a laser. If the pain is severe or the stone is not passing, a more invasive procedure like percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) might be considered

View allI've been diagnosed with phimosis and I'm not sure what to do should I consider laser surgery or are there natural treatments that might work? I'm a bit worried about the risks and recovery time with surgery but also want something effective
For phimosis, non-surgical treatments like steroid creams and stretching exercises are often tried first. If these aren't effective, surgical options like circumcision or preputioplasty might be considered. Laser circumcision offers a minimally invasive surgical alternative with potential benefits like faster healing

I'm 32 and married, living in Mumbai. I'm dealing with a situation that's been worrying me: my penis bends to the left when it's erect, and my foreskin doesn't pull back easily; when I try to force it, it hurts. I've talked to my wife about this, so that's a relief, but I really need a solution. Could someone please provide some advice on how to handle this?
Phimosis is a condition in which a person is unable to pull back his foreskin either Partially or Completely.it can be Peyronie's disease, also a condition characterized by a curved penis and painful erections; consult a urologist in Mumbai for a proper diagnosis and discussion of treatment options, which may include oral medications, injections, or surgery to alleviate symptoms and improve sexual function.
