I've been urinating every 5 minutes but only in small amounts. I don't have any spinal issues or past surgeries that could cause neurogenic bladder, which I know is a common reason for this. Does homeopathy have any treatment options for this?

It's important to consult with a doctor to determine the cause of your frequent, small-volume urination and rule out any underlying medical conditions. While homeopathy may be considered by some as a treatment option, it's crucial to discuss all treatment options with your healthcare provider to ensure they are appropriate and safe for your specific situation.

I've been experiencing some issues after masturbating where I get small cuts on my foreskin, and it's becoming a bit of a concern. They tend to heal after a few days, but as soon as I masturbate again, the same thing happens. It's quite painful, and sometimes I can't even retract the foreskin because of the pain. I'm worried and wondering if this is something I should be concerned about or if there's anything I can do to prevent it. Could you provide some advice on what might be causing this and how to stop it from happening?

It sounds like you may be experiencing irritation or minor abrasions on your foreskin, possibly due to friction during masturbation. I recommend using a gentle moisturizer or emollient to help soothe the area and reduce friction. If the issue persists or becomes more painful, it may be helpful to consult a doctor for further evaluation.

I have two kidney stones one is a 13mm stone in my right lower ureter near the iliac vessels with moderate hydroureteronephrosis, and the other is a 5mm stone in the lower pole of my left kidney. My creatinine is 1.13, urea is 18, and uric acid is 8. Is there any chance I can dissolve or pass these stones without surgery? My urologist is recommending urgent surgery because of the swelling in my right ureter, but I'd really like to avoid surgery if possible. Could ESWL be an option for me instead?

It's understandable that you'd want to explore non-surgical options for your kidney stones, especially with the 13mm stone causing moderate hydroureteronephrosis. While the 5mm stone might be a candidate for watchful waiting, the larger stone in your right ureter likely requires a more active approach. ESWL is a possibility for the right ureteral stone, but its effectiveness and suitability depend on factors like stone composition and location. Given the moderate hydroureteronephrosis, your urologist's concern for urgent intervention is justified.
