I'm experiencing some pain in the area below my waist, especially when I wear a tight belt. The pain isn't constantit's more of a dull ache that comes and goes and seems to affect the whole front area. I'm a bit worried and curious about what might be causing this. Could this be something serious, or is it just from the belt being too tight?

I'm really worried about something that happened recently. My friend accidentally hit me really hard in the testicles, and it hurt a lot. Do you think this could affect my sperm count? If so, how much? I'm not sure what to do next and could really use some guidance.

Any temprorary injury has less chances to have effect on sperm count. If you have any swelling or severe pain or redness kindly consult Doctor.

I have an 18mm stone in my renal tube but haven't had any issues for a year can it be treated with just medicine or is surgery necessary? How safe is surgery and what would you recommend in my case?

Kidney stones should be removed by surgery if they cause repeated infections in the urine or because they are blocking the flow of urine from the kidney. Today, surgery usually involves small or no incisions (cuts), minor pain and minimal time off work.
