I have a 4mm calculus in my left vesicoureteric junction and mild left hydroureteronephrosis, plus a 2mm microlith in the interpolar region of my left kidney. Should I be considering surgery for this or are there other treatment options? I'm a bit worried about what this means for my kidney health.

My foreskin is really tight and I can't pull it back all the way. I don't want surgery are there any creams or ointments that can help loosen it quickly?
Yes, certain creams and ointments, often containing steroids, can help loosen a tight foreskin (phimosis) and make it easier to retract without surgery. Topical steroids like betamethasone valerate, fluticasone propionate, hydrocortisone, or triamcinolone can soften and loosen the skin. These creams are often used in conjunction with gentle stretching exercises
