I've had two manual surgeries for kidney stones but they're still there 13mm on one side and 9mm on the other. I don't have pain right now, but I'm worried and wondering if laser surgery would be a better option to finally get rid of them. What do you suggest for a more thorough treatment?

I'm noticing that my penis curves to the left and I'm a bit concerned about it. I was wondering if switching to my right hand for masturbation might help straighten it out? Does the hand I use actually affect the curvature? Would love some guidance on this.

A slight curve in the penis is usually normal and often doesn't require treatment. Using your right or left hand for masturbation won't change the curvature. However, if the curve is significant or causing discomfort, its a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying conditions such as Peyronie's disease.
