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?

My penis has a 30-degree curve to the right side, and I think it might be because I sleep on my stomach. Are there any home remedies, habits, or medicines that can help straighten it without needing surgery?

A 30-degree penile curve might be related to Peyronie's disease, a condition causing scar tissue to form inside the penis, leading to curvature, and can sometimes be painful. While sleeping on your stomach could potentially contribute, it's best to consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment options.
