I'm trying to find out which Viagra would be the best and help me stay longer in bed. Are there any options that have fewer side effects and are commonly recommended? I'm a bit worried and could use some advice.

For the past few months, I've been dealing with a burning sensation when I pee and having to push hard to empty my bladder. The flow is slow, not smooth, and sometimes splits into multiple streams. My doctor thinks it's likely a stricture and suggested surgery. Are there other treatment options? Also, I've noticed a sudden drop in libido and weaker erections could this be connected?

A urethral stricture can cause these symptoms; options like dilation or endoscopic urethrotomy may be tried before surgery.

My mom just got diagnosed with an 11mm kidney stone. Can this be treated with meds or will she need surgery? If surgery is needed, what kind would they recommend and how does it work?

For a kidney stone 11mm in size, treatment options often involve surgical procedures, as stones larger than 10mm are generally not expected to pass naturally. Common surgical techniques include Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL), Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS, and Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy (URSL). Medications can also play a role in managing pain and helping stones pass, but are less likely to be effective for larger stones.
