I have a 67mm kidney stone stuck in my right ureter - is there any way to get rid of it without going through surgery? I'm really hoping for non-surgical options if possible

A 67mm stone usually needs surgical removal; non-surgical options are rarely effective at this size.

I've been dealing with this issue and could really use some guidance. In my younger days, I masturbated a lot, often without lubricant or sometimes using soap. Now, the head of my penis is really dry, and if I dont put on moisturizer twice a day, it ends up burning a lot. What can I do about this? Is there something else I should be using or looking into?
