Is it possible to pass a 6mm kidney stone without needing surgery doc I'm really worried about this and want to know my options
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Around 90% of small kidney stones (smaller than 6 mm) and 60% of large stones (larger than 6 mm) pass on their own. If you have a large kidney stone or one that's blocking the flow of pee, you'll need to have a procedure to break up and/or remove it

View allI'm using Vigora 50 whenever I have sex, and I'm wondering if that could be dangerous. Could you let me know if there are any risks involved? If there are, I'd really appreciate some advice on what to do.
Vigora-50 contains Sildenafil, which is used to treat erectile dysfunction. It is generally safe to use as directed, but it can have potential side effects such as headache, flushing, indigestion, and changes in vision. However, if you have certain medical conditions like heart problems, it can be dangerous to use without medical supervision. If you experience any chest pain, dizziness, or vision changes while using Vigora-50, you should stop using it and seek medical attention.

I'm having some trouble with my foreskin. It doesn't roll back as much as it's supposed to, and when I try to pull it down more, it starts to hurt. I'm really hoping to find a solution that doesn't involve surgery. Do you have any advice on what I might be able to do to fix this? It's really starting to affect my life, and I'd appreciate any guidance you can offer.
You likely have a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to retract; to resolve this without surgery, your doctor may recommend gentle manual stretching exercises, topical steroid creams like betamethasone to reduce inflammation, or preputioplasty devices that help gradually stretch the foreskin; it's essential to consult a urologist
