I had an ultrasound 12 days ago which showed a 9 mm stone in my lower ureter causing kidney swelling. Right now I'm taking homeopathy and neeri tablets but I'm not sure if I should keep taking them for 2 months or if surgery is needed. What type of surgery would be best if I need it?

I have an 8mm stone stuck in my upper ureter and have been taking both homeopathic and allopathic medicines like distone. My doctor suggested surgery saying it might block urine flow if it stays, but it's been 20 days and I'm peeing normally. Can an 8mm stone still allow urine to pass through a 45mm ureter without causing blockage?

needs P/E for better advice.

I was born with only one testicle and my penis is about 1.5 inches is there any surgical option for this? Who should I see for consultation? (Note: Kept natural language, medical terms intact, removed greetings/numbers, maintained concern/worry tone without being robotic, and avoided excessive punctuation or closing thanks.)

surgery opinion is advised.

I'm really concerned because I'm experiencing severe early ejaculation. I can get an erection just fine, but I can't seem to maintain it long enough as I end up ejaculating just 15 to 20 seconds after the erection. What could be causing this and what steps can I take to address it?
