I've had a 7mm kidney stone for a month now that hasn't moved at all. It's not painful but causing issues like blood in my urine, burning sensation, and trouble urinating. Should I consider surgery or is there another way to deal with this?

Non-painful 7mm stones causing hematuria and burning may need lithotripsy—consult urology for treatment options.

View allI'm feeling this constant pain that starts from my lower back and moves upwards, plus there's pain around my groin area. It's been pretty uncomfortable, and I'm worried because it also feels weird at the end of peeing. It kind of started with a burning sensation when passing urine and semen. I tried some temporary treatments with medicines like Silofast, Gabapin NT, and Liofen Ten, which eased the pain a bit, but once I stopped, the problems came back. I've done tests like USG, Urine Test, Uric Acid Test, Creatinine Test, and a Lipid Profile, and everything seems normal except my Uric Acid level, which is at 6.39. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on and what can I do to get the relief I'm looking for. Any ideas?
It seems you may be experiencing a combination of musculoskeletal pain and urinary issues. While your tests were mostly normal, the elevated uric acid might indicate a mild predisposition to gout or other joint issues. It's important to continue addressing pain with physical therapy, manage uric acid levels, and consider further evaluation of your urinary symptoms. A follow-up with a urologist or a pain specialist may help refine the diagnosis.

I've noticed my penis seems to be getting really small and even shrinking up to my lower abdomen when I go to urinate, particularly this winter. Im 36 and have never experienced this before. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it be a medical issue?
Cold Weather: Exposure to cold temperatures can cause blood vessels to constrict, leading to a temporary decrease in penis size. This is a common phenomenon, especially during winter months.

I'm a 30-year-old guy who's not married yet, and I've been struggling with a small penis and not being able to last long. It's been really affecting my confidence and I'm worried about my future relationships. Is there any way I can get help with this?
The typical erect penis is usually 5 to 6 inches long with a circumference of 4 to 5 inches. There's more variation in the size of flaccid penises. Some guys are genuinely smaller than that. In rare cases, genetics and hormone problems cause a condition called micropenis -- an erect penis of under 3 inches. Sometimes Peyronie's disease can reduce a guy's size. Losing weight will reveal more of that hidden shaft that's buried beneath belly fat. It doesn't actually increase your size, but it will look that way...
