I recently got an ultrasound done, and it showed that my left kidneys upper calyx is 6.5 cm and the middle calyx is 4 mm. Should I be worried about this causing future problems? Also, I've been taking K Mac B6 syrup for my kidney stones. Could there be any side effects from using this syrup regularly? Would really appreciate some advice.

-It seems like your ultrasound shows a 6.5 cm size in the upper calyx of the left kidney and a 4 mm stone in the middle calyx. While the larger size might need monitoring, the 4 mm stone is small and could pass on its own. K Mac B6 syrup is generally safe

I've been having this on-and-off pain in the lower right side of my abdomen, kind of just above the penis area, and it seems like it's coming from the right testicle area. It's been really worrying me. What could this be? Should I be concerned about something serious?

usually thats normal cramp. no need to worry, practice kaegel exercises and maintain healthy life style. if it becoming worse visit urologist for appropriate management.

I'm really worried because my doctor told me to take Ivermectol 12 mg every 4 days for my hydrocele, but I haven't seen any results yet. Should I be concerned that it's not working, or might there be something else I should try?

Ivermectol 12mg is typically used to treat parasitic infections, not hydrocele. _Hydrocele Treatment_ 1. _Needle aspiration_: A procedure where a needle is inserted to drain the fluid. 2. _Surgery (hydrocelectomy)_: A surgical procedure to remove the hydrocele sac. _Ivermectol for Hydrocele_ Using Ivermectol for hydrocele treatment is unconventional and may not be effective. Ivermectol is an antiparasitic medication, and hydrocele is a condition characterized by fluid accumulation in the scrotum. _Recommendations_ 1. _Consult a urologist_: Schedule an appointment with a urologist to discuss alternative treatment options. 2. _Re-evaluate treatment_: Consider needle aspiration or surgery, which are more effective treatments for hydrocele. 3. _Stop Ivermectol_: Discontinue taking Ivermectol, as it may not be addressing the underlying condition.
