I noticed a 6mm calculus in the upper pole of my right kidney. Is surgery absolutely necessary or are there medicines that can help dissolve or pass it naturally? I'm a bit worried about invasive procedures and would prefer other options if possible. What would you recommend in this case?

I've recently been diagnosed with a 5mm kidney stone and a cyst in my testicle. Ever since I started taking Himalaya Cystone and homeopathic Berberis Vulgaris for them, I've been having some issues with erections. Is that normal? Should I be worried about these side effects?

Erectile issues are not typically caused by medications like **Himalaya Cystone** or **Berberis Vulgaris**, but stress or anxiety related to your kidney stone and testicular cyst diagnosis might contribute. If this persists, consult a doctor to rule out any underlying hormonal or vascular causes.
