I'm really struggling with balanitis, and I've tried clotrimazole, ketoconazole, and onabet without much success. Do you have any other suggestions or treatments that might be more effective? I'm concerned nothing is working, and I could really use some help on what to try next.

For balanitis that is not responding to clotrimazole, ketoconazole, or onabet, you can try using Terbinafine cream. Apply Terbinafine cream twice daily on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid any potential irritants.

I've got a 16 mm stone in my left kidney and a 6 mm stone in my right. I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if possible. Can these be removed without having to go under the knife?
The 6mm stone in your right kidney is likely to pass on its own with hydration and medical expulsive therapy, but the 16mm stone in your left kidney is larger and less likely to pass naturally; for the larger stone, surgeon may recommend shock wave lithotripsy (SWL), ureteroscopy, or percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) to break up or remove the stone, depending on its composition, location, and your overall health; consult a urologist or nephrologist
