I've noticed that my penis, when flaccid and stretched, tends to bend to the left at about a 30 to 40-degree angle. I'm worried if this is normal. Is there any way to fix it, maybe some device that could help straighten it out? I'm really looking for some guidance on how I can get my flaccid bend straightened. Any advice would be really appreciated.

It sounds like you may have Peyronie's disease, which is a condition where scar tissue forms in the penis, causing it to bend during erections. To help straighten your flaccid penis, you can try using a vacuum erection device like the brand name "Vacurect" or "Erec-Tech" under the guidance of a healthcare provider. Additionally, medications like "Xiaflex" may be prescribed to help break down the scar tissue. It's important to consult with a urologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

I've been dealing with really painful kidney stones - an 18mm one on the left side and a 3.3mm one on the right. The pain comes and goes but it's pretty intense when it flares up. Is there any way to get relief without having to go through surgery? What would be the best treatment options for stones this size?
You can pick from options like 1. Surgery ( most effective), 2. Extracorporeal short wave lithotripsy ( ESWL) in which there are no cuts involved. Medicines would not be effective except for relieving pain

I've had this tight ring around my penis foreskin for years now - I can pull the skin back when soft but it hurts during erections and sex. Sometimes the skin even tears because of that tight band. It's not phimosis but I really don't want surgery - are there any medical treatments that could help with this?
While it sounds like you might have a condition similar to phimosis (tight foreskin), where the foreskin can't fully retract, and you're experiencing pain during erections, there are non-surgical options that can help. These include topical medications, gentle stretching exercises, and maintaining good hygiene.
