Question 1

I have a 7x5 mm stone in my left vesicoureteric junction but all other reports are normal can it be treated with meds or do I need surgery

Accepted Answer

A 7x5 mm stone at the vesicoureteral junction (VUJ) can be treated with medication or surgery depending on individual factors. While some stones this size might pass naturally with medical expulsion therapy (MET), including pain management and increasing fluids, surgical intervention may be necessary, especially if the stone is causing obstruction or infection. The decision will depend on factors like the stone's location, your symptoms, overall health, and the potential risks and benefits of each treatment option

Question 2

I have a 4.3mm stone in my right kidney and mild swelling. I'm drinking 5 liters of water daily and taking k cit syrup along with dynapres 0.4 tablet. Can this be treated with medication or will I need surgery? How can I get it removed?

Accepted Answer

4.3‚ÄØmm kidney stone with mild hydronephrosis typically responds to medication and increased fluids;surgery is rare unless complications arise.

Question 3

I recently got married and whenever I try to have sex with my wife, the skin on my penis hurts because it hasn't separated properly. I don't want to remove all the skin, just the top part that's attached to the penis. What would be the cost of that? What should I do, and if there's surgery required, how much would it cost?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may have a condition called **phimosis** or tight foreskin. A minor procedure like a **frenuloplasty** or partial circumcision can address this without removing the full skin. I recommend consulting a urologist for an evaluation. Costs can vary but are typically around 10,000-30,000 in most clinics, depending on the procedure and location.

I'm curious about the side effects of masturbation and what I should do afterward. Can you help?
