I've had a cyst on my scrotum for about a year now. I thought it would go away on its own, but it's just getting bigger. It started with one and now there are four. What's going on? Should I be worried?

I have a 9mm kidney stone and my doctor recommended surgery but I'm really nervous about the risks. Is it safe to go through with the operation or are there other options I should consider first? I don't feel great about getting cut open

In 50% of patients who have 9 mm kidney stones, surgical treatment is usually required. The most effective treatment for them is extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL), which is a non-invasive procedure.

I've noticed that my left testicle is quite a bit larger than my right one. It doesn't hurt or anything, but I'm not sure if this is something normal or if I should be worried about it. Should I be looking to see a doctor about this, and if so, what kind of specialist should I reach out to?

A size difference between testicles is relatively common and usually not a cause for concern
