I've had a circumcision about 20 days ago, and I'm starting to get worried about the incision scar. Is there any cream that can help with scar removal, or are there any other options you would recommend to get rid of the scars?

-I'd advise you to be patient with the healing process, as scars can take several months to improve. Keeping the area moisturized and protected from sun exposure is key to minimizing scarring.

My left hydrosol is three times bigger than the right one and has been painful for the past two days. It also feels harder compared to the right side. Should I consider surgery or are there any medications that can help with this?

Painful hydrosol may respond to anti-inflammatory meds temporarily—if large or recurrent, surgery is the definitive solution.

I had a boil on my penile shaft and I popped it, but I'm still feeling pain there. Now there's also another pain that started just above the penis on the right side near the bladder area. I'm really worried about this. What could be going on?

After popping a boil on your penile shaft, persistent pain, along with new pain near the urinary bladder area, may indicate a potential infection, abscess, or inflammation of the surrounding tissues; it's essential to consult a urologist or a dermatologist promptly to assess the situation, as untreated infections can lead to more severe complications, such as cellulitis, epididymitis, or prostatitis; expect a physical examination, potentially followed by diagnostic tests like urine analysis, ultrasound, or imaging studies to determine the cause and guide appropriate treatment.

I have a 9.6mm stone stuck in my right upper ureter with mild hydronephrosis, and there's also some right adrenal linear calcification. I've had lithotripsy before in 2018 and really don't want surgery again. Are there any Ayurvedic, Homeopathic, or Allopathic medicines that can help pass the stone? I've been urinating very frequently too could that be related? What are my options for non-surgical treatment?

Once the stone formed it has to be removed by some kind of intervention either it is lithotripsy or RIRS or PCNL. There are no medicines which can dissolve the stone but next time you get the stone out after the surgery get its biochemical analysis to know its composition. Accordingly you can have your diet modifications.
