I have a 10mm stone in my right kidney and a 5mm one in my left kidney will these pass on their own or do I need surgery?

A 10mm kidney stone is unlikely to pass on its own and will likely require surgical intervention. A 5mm stone has a higher chance of passing naturally, but it's also possible that it may require treatment depending on the individual's situation

I've had this tight ring around my penis foreskin for years now - I can pull the skin back when soft but it hurts during erections and sex. Sometimes the skin even tears because of that tight band. It's not phimosis but I really don't want surgery - are there any medical treatments that could help with this?

While it sounds like you might have a condition similar to phimosis (tight foreskin), where the foreskin can't fully retract, and you're experiencing pain during erections, there are non-surgical options that can help. These include topical medications, gentle stretching exercises, and maintaining good hygiene.

I'm a bit concerned because I had intercourse with my wife around 5 pm, and when we tried again at 8 pm, I noticed that I didn't ejaculate. I'm not sure what's going on, and it's got me worried. Could there be a reason or an issue I should be aware of?

It is not uncommon for some men to experience delayed ejaculation, where there is a delay or difficulty in ejaculating. This can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, certain medications, or underlying health conditions. It is important to address any underlying issues that may be contributing to this problem. If this issue persists, you may consider speaking with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
