I've been dealing with some mild pain and discomfort in my perineal area for the past month. It kind of feels like something's trying to push its way out, and there's this sensation of stretching inside. I went to a urologist, but he suggested I see a neurologist instead. What could be going on with me?

I've been diagnosed with chronic non-bacterial prostatitis and urinary bladder wall thickening of 7mm. Are there any medications that can help treat these conditions or is surgery an option for prostatitis? Would surgery provide a permanent solution for these issues?

For chronic non-bacterial prostatitis, medication is the primary treatment option, although surgery might be considered in specific cases. Bladder wall thickening, however, is a different issue and requires separate evaluation and treatment. There is no guarantee of a permanent cure, but with appropriate management, symptoms can be effectively controlled.

Can minor kidney stones be treated with medicine alone and what lifestyle changes or precautions should I take to avoid surgery

Small kidney stones can often be treated with medications like alpha blockers or pain relievers. Drinking plenty of water, reducing sodium intake, and eating a balanced diet with less oxalate can help prevent further stones.
