Around 90% of small kidney stones (smaller than 6 mm) and 60% of large stones (larger than 6 mm) pass on their own. If you have a large kidney stone or one that's blocking the flow of pee, you'll need to have a procedure to break up and/or remove it.

I'm dealing with a problem related to my penis. When it gets erect, the foreskin tends to fit tightly just below the top. I've been considering circumcision to remove some of the foreskin. I'm not sure who I should consult in Ahmedabad or which clinic to visit for this. Could you give me some guidance or advice?

You can visit General SURGEON for this issue.

I have phimosis but it's not like the typical cases I've read about there's no pain, swelling, or trouble peeing, and everything else seems normal. The only issue is I've never been able to retract my foreskin since birth. Are there any non-surgical ways to manage this? Could it cause problems later or affect sex?

MIGHT TAKE 1-2 WEEKS .
