I've had kidney stones for over 20 years with 7 surgeries already. Now there's a 6mm stone at the VUJ and my doctor prescribed cifaxime 200, Uritin 04, and aquzide 12.5. Right now, I only feel sharpness in my penis and discomfort around that area no back pain or bleeding. Can a stone this size pass naturally or do I need to worry?

There are several factors which predict some passage. Size of stone, duration, inflammation etc. Need more information.

View allI've noticed that after having intercourse with my partner, one side of my penis is swollen. There's no pain, but it does itch a bit. Is this normal after sex? Should I be doing something about it?
A swollen penis after intercourse, accompanied by itching but no pain, can be caused by an allergic reaction to latex condoms, lubricants, or spermicides, or by a skin condition like contact dermatitis; to alleviate symptoms, apply cool compresses, avoid scratching, and use antihistamine creams or hydrocortisone cream; however, if the swelling persists or worsens, or if you experience difficulty urinating, increased redness, or pain, consult a healthcare provider or a urologist for proper evaluation and guidance.

I have a 15mm kidney stone in my right PUJ and a 9mm one in my left kidney, and my creatinine serum level is 1.13. My doctor recommends laser surgery with a stent, but I'm wondering if there's any way to remove or dissolve these stones naturally. How long can I safely delay the surgery?
Given the size of your kidney stones (15mm and 9mm) and your creatinine level (1.13), a delay in surgery might not be advisable, especially for the larger stone in the PUJ. While natural methods like increased fluid intake can help with small stones, larger ones and those causing obstruction, like the 15mm one, typically require intervention.
