I've been having swelling and stabbing pain on the lower left side of my trunk near my abdomen and hip. My doctor checked and said there's no kidney or urinary issue but still ordered an ultrasound. The scan showed normal kidneys and no fatty liver but found a UTI, urine retention, and 6mm gall bladder stones with fatty and calcium deposits. I'm worried will my doctor push for surgery or can this be managed with meds and lifestyle changes? What does Ayurveda suggest for avoiding surgery in this case?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

View allI've been having issues with frequent urination and incomplete emptying of my bladder for years now, and honestly, it's really frustrating. I've seen a urologist and went through all sorts of tests like kidney and abdomen ultrasounds, cystoscopy, blood sugar checks, and everything came back normal. I've also taken different medications for urinary and bladder infections, as recommended by my doctor, but nothing has worked. Lately, I've noticed this white liquid occasionally in my urine at night, and it's freaking me out a bit. I've tried so many things, but I'm not seeing any results. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
Consult a urologist again to discuss: - Urodynamic tests to assess bladder function - Pelvic floor physical therapy - Consider consulting a nephrologist to rule out kidney issues - Get tested for: - Urine culture and sensitivity - Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test (if not done already) - Lifestyle changes: - Practice pelvic floor exercises (Kegel exercises) - Manage fluid intake - Avoid irritants like caffeine and spicy foods

I drink plenty of water and watch my diet but still keep getting kidney stones - this is my third surgery to remove them why do they keep forming even when I'm careful what causes these stones to develop repeatedly
Even with good hydration and dietary choices, recurring kidney stones can be due to various factors including underlying medical conditions, genetic predisposition, or certain medications. Your doctor may need to investigate further to determine the specific cause of your recurring stones and tailor a prevention plan.

I tried to get my penis erect by watching porn today, but it just didn't work. Is this something normal? Would love to know what you think.
It's not uncommon for people to experience temporary difficulty achieving an erection due to factors like stress, fatigue, or even performance anxiety. If this issue persists, it could be helpful to evaluate your overall physical and mental health, and consulting a healthcare provider might be beneficial for further guidance.
