Yes,surgery is the only option.PCNL-percutaneous nephrolithotomy,URSL-uretroscopic lithotripsy and lastly RIRS--retrograde intrarenal surgery here a fexible scope is inserted into the kidney stone is located and fragmented into smaller pieces using a laser technolgy.But URSL is the procedure specifically used for removal of stones in the urethra and ureter by passing a flexxible tube and use of laser and fragmenting the stones and the small stones usually pass through urethra.

Question 3

I'm really worried because I'm dealing with pain in the area between my testicles and rectum. I've noticed it's swollen, and when I touch it, the pain gets worse. Can you tell me what might be going on or what I should do to help it?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may have an infection or inflammation, such as **epididymitis** or **prostatitis**, which could explain the pain and swelling. I recommend avoiding pressure on the area, using warm compresses for relief, and consulting a doctor promptly for evaluation and treatment, which may include antibiotics.
