Question 1

I've got a 10mm stone in my right kidney and it's been causing me some on-and-off pain on the right side of my stomach. I'm really concerned about it and was wondering if you could share some advice or insights on what I should do or expect. It's been quite uncomfortable, and Im just trying to figure out the best way forward.

Accepted Answer

Forteo and Terifrac are essentially the same medication, teriparatide, used to treat osteoporosis. The difference lies in the manufacturer:

- Forteo: Eli Lilly and Company
- Terifrac: Sun Pharmaceutical Industries

Since your mother has used Terifrac for 6 months, it's likely okay to continue. However, consult her doctor to:

1. Assess progress
2. Determine if switching to Forteo is necessary
3. Discuss potential side effects and long-term treatment plans

Typically, teriparatide treatment is limited to 24 months.

Question 2

I'm 19 and have bilateral varicocele measuring 2.2 mm and 2.6 mm but I think it's getting bigger. I get occasional scrotal pain, no erections, and see a bunch of veins there. I don't want surgery because it might come back. Can homeopathy really help cure varicocele? What other options do I have?

Accepted Answer

surgery opinion is advised to the patient.

Question 3

I'm 19 and have right-sided cryptorchidism that wasn't treated when I was younger because my parents didn't know about it. Now I'm worried what's the best option for me, medicine or surgery? Should I go for orchiopexy or orchidectomy?
