I have a 4mm stone in my left ureter and I'm worried if it can pass on its own or if I'll need surgery. Right now I'm taking Drotin M for the pain but I'm not sure what to expect next. Can you help me understand my options?

A 4mm stone in the ureter can sometimes pass on its own, but if it doesn‚Äôt, surgery may be needed. Drotin M can help with pain management, but follow up with your doctor for further treatment options.

I'm really struggling with a masturbation addiction. It seems like every time I have some free time, I end up doing it. Sometimes it's as much as three or four times a day, and it's really starting to affect me. I can't seem to gain any weight either. Could there be a connection, and what can I do to manage this habit better?

Normal,nothing to worry ok.

I've noticed some white skin on the tip of my penis, and it's really sensitive to touch. The rest of the skin feels normal, almost like there's a difference I can't explain. What could this be, and should I be worried about it?
