I have a 1.5cm kidney stone in my left kidney and keep getting frequent pain. Should I consider surgery or is there any medication that can help with this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A 1.5 cm kidney stone causing frequent pain may require surgical intervention, depending on its location and how it's affecting your urinary flow. While medication can help with pain management and potentially assist in passing smaller stones, it's unlikely to resolve a stone of that size without other treatments.

Premature ejaculation can be caused by factors like stress, anxiety, hormonal imbalances, or relationship issues. To overcome it, focusing on relaxation techniques, communication with your partner, and possibly seeking professional advice for behavioral therapy or medication can help. Don't hesitate to consult a healthcare provider for a tailored plan.

What's the safest surgery option for someone with BPH who also has heart issues and diabetes? I'm worried about complications and want to know how much each procedure might cost
For someone with BPH, heart issues, and diabetes, the safest surgery option would likely involve a minimally invasive procedure like Transurethral Incision of the Prostate (TUIP) or laser surgery (HoLEP or ThuLEP). TUIP is generally safer than TURP due to a lower risk of complications like bleeding and requires less anesthesia. Laser surgery offers less bleeding, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery compared to traditional TURP
