I've got a question about my ultrasound report. There's a 6mm calculus in my right lower ureter, just 1 cm away from the UVJ. I'm kind of worried about whether I really need laparoscopic surgery for this. Any advice on what I should do?

View allI'm having some trouble with my foreskin. It's kind of tight, and I'm really not keen on having surgery. Do you have any suggestions on how I can deal with this issue without going under the knife? Any help would be appreciated!
If your foreskin is tight, a condition called phimosis, non-surgical options like gentle stretching exercises, using a steroid cream prescribed by a doctor, or trying a non-invasive method like a foreskin dilation device can be effective. However, it's important to consult a urologist to ensure the right treatment for your situation.

I've been having this dragging sensation and pain on the left side of my scrotum which my doctor says is varicocele and recommended surgery but I'm not sure if it's really necessary. Can varicocele heal on its own or are there other treatment options before considering surgery? The discomfort comes and goes but it's really bothering me during physical activity
While it's possible for a varicocele to improve or disappear on its own, particularly in adolescents, it's not a guarantee. In many cases, varicoceles persist and may even worsen over time. Your doctor's recommendation for surgery is likely based on your specific symptoms and how they're impacting your quality of life, especially during physical activity. There are other options to consider before surgery, but it's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and guidance.
