I have a 15mm stone in my right kidney but no abdominal pain. Can it be treated without surgery or is surgery the only option?

A 15 mm kidney stone may need lithotripsy or surgery if not passing—monitor and decide based on symptoms.

It's possible that the pain you're experiencing is normal post-surgery, but it's crucial to consult with your doctor to rule out any complications. While some pain is expected after hernia and varicocele surgery with mesh, it should typically decrease over time. If the pain persists or worsens, especially in a circular area, it could indicate a problem like nerve damage, inflammation, or even mesh-related issues

I've been experiencing some tender pain at the top of my left testicle, and sometimes it even seems like the shape of it isn't quite round. Walking or touching that area makes the pain worse. I'm not sure if I should see a gynecologist or if a general physician would be the right person to talk to. What do you think I should do?
You should consult a urologist, not a gynecologist, as they specialize in male reproductive health; a general physician can provide an initial evaluation, but a urologist is better equipped to diagnose and treat potential issues like epididymitis, orchitis, testicular torsion, or varicocele; schedule an appointment to discuss your symptoms and undergo a physical examination to determine the cause of the pain and abnormal testicular shape.
