Using sound waves to break up stones. For some kidney stones, your healthcare professional may recommend a treatment called extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. This also is known as ESWL.

View allHey, I've been hitting the gym and my trainer suggested I start using whey protein. But I'm kinda worried if it could mess with my libido or even cause erectile dysfunction. Is it really safe to go ahead with whey protein?
Whey protein is generally safe for most people and does not directly cause loss of libido or erectile dysfunction. However, excessive protein intake can sometimes affect hormone levels or kidney function in some individuals. It's best to use it in moderation, and if you have any concerns, consulting with a healthcare provider is always a good idea.

my penis hole has been getting smaller over the past 3 years can it go back to normal without surgery
It's possible your penile meatus (the opening at the tip of the penis) is narrowing, potentially due to meatal stenosis or a urethral stricture. While surgery is often the primary treatment for these conditions, dilation (stretching the opening) may be an option, and in some cases, the narrowing might resolve on its own or with other treatments. It's crucial to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment recommendations, as they can assess the severity and suggest the best course of action

I'm really troubled by nightfall and it's been going on for 10 years now. I've tried various Ayurvedic and Unani medicines, but nothing seems to work. Can you help me understand why this is happening and what I can do to cure it?
Nightfall is a normal function of the body. It is the body's way of discharging the semen which gets collected. Don't fall into a trap by going for different types of treatments and waste your money. It is a natural process of the body and no medicine is required for it.
