I've had this small pea-sized lump under my bottom left testicle since I was 15, and now I'm 25. It hasn't really grown, but recently, I've been getting this dull pain in that area. It's not constant but noticeable, especially last night when this sharp dull pain woke me up. I've experienced a bit of that dull pain today too. Could this be something serious, or should I be concerned?

Congratulations on taking the Covishield vaccine!
Dolo 650 (paracetamol) is generally considered safe while breastfeeding.
However, consult your doctor or pediatrician before taking any medication.
The vaccine's side effects, such as fever or pain, can be managed with paracetamol.
Monitor your baby for any adverse reactions, such as drowsiness or fussiness.
Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized guidance.

View allI'm a 38-year-old guy just diagnosed with kidney stones and the doctors say the stone is too big to pass on its own so they're recommending surgery with a stent Can you explain how the stent actually helps with stone removal and what kind of side effects I might expect from having it put in
Stent improves obstruction in the passage of urine and by passive dilatation of kidney tubes (ureter) passing to bladder ,may help in stone retrieval

Found a 5.7 mm stone in my right distal ureter near the UV junction on a CT scan. I've passed stones before but no pain right now. Is this one small enough to pass on its own or will I need surgery?
A 5.7mm kidney stone in the distal ureter, close to the ureterovesical junction (UVJ), has a chance of passing on its own but may require medical intervention. The exact likelihood of spontaneous passage depends on various factors, including the stone's shape and composition. While you haven't experienced pain, it's essential to monitor for signs of infection or pain and consult with a healthcare professional for personalized guidance

I have a 13.49 mm stone in my right upper ureter, about 2 cm from the pelvic ureteric junction, and it's causing grade 1 hydronephrosis. I'm trying to figure out the best surgery option should I go for ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy or PCNL? What would you recommend based on the size and location of the stone?
For your 13.49 mm stone in the upper ureter, near the pelvic ureteric junction, causing grade 1 hydronephrosis, ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy (URSL) is generally recommended over PCNL. URSL is a minimally invasive procedure that allows for targeted stone fragmentation and removal through the ureter. PCNL, while effective, is more invasive and carries a higher risk of complications.
