I'm dealing with paraphimosis and considering circumcision are there any side effects I should know about before going through with the surgery? Just want to make sure it's the right move for me.

With quick, proper treatment, the outlook for paraphimosis is very good. But if you can't put your foreskin back into position by yourself after treatment, you run the risk of getting paraphimosis again. That's why healthcare providers usually suggest circumcision.

I had keyhole surgery for kidney stones back in August 2016 but just got an ultrasound scan that showed an 11mm and 5.5mm stone in my right kidney and a 3.5mm stone in my left kidney. I'm really worried about going through surgery again is there any way to treat these stones without surgery or is surgery the only option?
