I'm dealing with a fungal infection on my penis and was told to take Zocon 400, two tablets total, with the second one supposed to be taken on the 7th day. I kind of messed up and ended up taking the second pill on the 9th day instead. Is that going to be a problem?

I have a 7mm kidney stone stuck in my right pelviureteric junction can medicines help pass it or is surgery the only option? What would you recommend?

A 7mm kidney stone lodged in the right pelviureteric junction (the junction where the kidney connects to the ureter) is unlikely to pass naturally and often requires medical intervention. While medications can help with some types of kidney stones, they are generally ineffective for calcium stones, which are the most common type. Surgery is often recommended for stones of this size and location

I've got a 7.5mm stone causing wave-like pain in my lower back and abdomen how can I pass it naturally or do I need surgery? Could it damage my kidneys or other organs if it stays too long?

A 7.5mm kidney stone causing wave-like pain in your lower back and abdomen is likely to require medical intervention, such as surgery, or procedures like lithotripsy to break it down, as it's less likely to pass naturally. If the stone remains lodged in the ureter, it can cause severe pain, increase the risk of infection or kidney damage, and potentially impact other organs over time.

How can you tell the difference between congenital phimosis and adult-onset phimosis? Also, does having phimosis mean someone is impotent? And is there a way to treat congenital phimosis without needing surgery, maybe using something like betamethasone cream?

Congenital phimosis is present from birth, where the foreskin cannot be retracted due to a tight opening, while phimosis in adults often develops due to scarring or infection. Phimosis is not considered impotence, as it primarily affects the foreskin's ability to retract, not erectile function. Betamethasone cream can be effective in mild cases of congenital phimosis by reducing inflammation and allowing easier retraction, but surgery may still be required for more severe cases.
