I'm really concerned because during sex, my foreskin doesn't seem to retract properly, and it's starting to get more painful. Is there something I can do to fix this issue, or should I be worried about it getting worse?

If your foreskin is not retracting (a condition called phimosis), it can cause pain or difficulty during sex. Using prescribed steroid creams or gentle stretching exercises might help, but if the issue persists, consult a urologistcircumcision or a minor surgical procedure may be necessary for permanent relief.

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.
