I'm wondering why my urologist recommended Dytor 10 for my 6.5mm kidney stone. Could you explain how it helps with the stone, and if there's anything specific I should be aware of while taking it?

Its a loop diuretic acting at Na-K-2Cl reabsorptive pump at ascending loop of Henle in your kidneys; interferes with chloride-binding cotransport system, causing increased excretion of water, sodium, chlorine, magnesium, and calcium..once water excretion increased there will be chances of your stones passing with out any surgical intervention

View allI've been feeling a dragging sensation on the left side of my testicle and my color Doppler test showed extra testicular varicocele grade IV. The doctor said surgery is the only option but I'm wondering if there are any other treatments I could try first
While a grade IV varicocele typically warrants surgical intervention, alternative treatments like embolization or sclerotherapy might be considered. However, you should discuss these options with your doctor or a urologist to determine the best course of treatment for your specific case.

My foreskin only pulls back to the head of my penis should it go all the way down? It seems to be loosening slowly on its own, but is there anything I can apply or take to help it stretch more without needing surgery?
A partially retractable foreskin may improve with gentle stretching and topical steroid creams. Surgery is only needed if it interferes with hygiene or causes discomfort.

I have a grade 3 varicocele on the left side and grade 2 on the right, with a sperm count of 26 million per ml. What's the better option to improve my sperm count homeopathy or surgery?
For improving sperm count in the context of grade 3 and 2 varicoceles, surgery (specifically varicocelectomy) is generally considered the more effective option, while homeopathy is not a scientifically recognized treatment for varicoceles or for improving sperm count
