I have a 2 mm renal calculus and I'm not sure what that exactly means. Is it the same as a kidney stone and does it need surgery to remove? Can medicines help treat it instead? What precautions should I take to manage this condition?

I've been diagnosed with 5mm kidney stones on both sides and I'm really looking to treat this without having to take tablets. Are there any alternative treatments or methods available for this situation?

Most stones that cause renal colic are small and pass out with the urine in a day or so. You should drink plenty of fluids to encourage a good flow of urine. Strong painkillers are often needed to ease the painuntil you pass the stone. No other treatment is usually needed.

I'm noticing that my penis curves to the left and I'm a bit concerned about it. I was wondering if switching to my right hand for masturbation might help straighten it out? Does the hand I use actually affect the curvature? Would love some guidance on this.

A slight curve in the penis is usually normal and often doesn't require treatment. Using your right or left hand for masturbation won't change the curvature. However, if the curve is significant or causing discomfort, its a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying conditions such as Peyronie's disease.
