I've had swelling and pain in my right testicle for about 12 weeks now. I read that surgery might be needed, but is there any way to treat this without going under the knife?

View allFound a 6mm stone at the UV junction in my left kidney should I consider surgery or can medication take care of it? Worried about the best approach to treat this
A 6mm kidney stone at the UV junction may be managed with medication or surgery, depending on the specific situation and your individual circumstances. Medication, such as Tamsulosin, can help relax the ureter and facilitate stone passage. If the stone is causing significant pain or obstruction, or if medical management fails, surgical options like lithotripsy or ureteroscopy may be considered

I'm a bit concerned because my father has had laser prostate treatments twice before, once in 2011 when his prostate was 50mm, and then again in 2014 when it was 60mm. Despite that, he still has issues with prostate enlargement. By August 2015, his prostate had grown to 76mm. We decided to try ayurvedic treatment, and by October 2015, it's down to 56mm. Is this kind of fluctuation normal, and should we be worried about long-term effects or stability, especially since he has gone through both laser and ayurvedic treatments? Any advice on what to keep an eye on or consider moving forward?
