I've been dealing with pain in my foreskin because it's too tight I think it's phimosis. I first noticed this around 7-8 years ago but never talked about it because I felt awkward. Now the pain is getting worse and I'm considering surgery. What do you think I should do?

I have a 13mm kidney stone in the lower pole of my right kidney and it's causing frequent stomach pain. Is it possible to treat this with medicine alone or will I need laser surgery? I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if there are other options.

Surgery only.

I'm really worried about some issues I've been having since I quit masturbating a year ago. I started when I was 14 and I've heard it can cause issues both mentally and physically. But since I stopped, I've been dealing with things like fatigue, eye floaters, lower back pain, semen leakage, and watery semen. Is it normal to feel so confused and depressed about this, and how can I get relief from these symptoms?

Found a cyst on my scrotum yesterday and I'm a bit worried. Is there any way to treat it without surgery? I've attached some pics for reference. What could be causing this and how serious is it?
