I had right inguinal hernia and varicocele surgery with mesh on the right side about 3 months ago but I'm still having pain in the areas marked with green dots in the photo I attached - is this normal or should I be concerned about the pain continuing this long after surgery

While some pain after hernia and varicocele surgery is normal, persistent pain three months post-surgery, especially in the areas marked in your photo, should be evaluated by your doctor. Though pain can persist for a few months, lasting pain beyond that is considered chronic and may indicate complications like nerve damage or inflammation.

I found out I have a 6.7 mm stone in the mid pole calyx of my right kidney along with mild PCS fullness. How serious is this? Should I be worried? What changes should I make to my diet and medications? Will I need surgery for this?

A 6.7 mm renal stone with mild PCS fullness may pass with hydration, analgesics, and medical expulsive therapy, but close monitoring is essential.

I keep leaking urine when I exercise, dance, or even sneeze and it's really bothering me. Is this something that can be fixed with medication or would I need surgery? It's making me super uncomfortable and I'm not sure what to do about it
