Just found out I have a 7mm kidney stone in my left ureter from a CT KUB scan. Really hoping to avoid surgery or lithotripsy are there any meds or other options that could help pass it naturally?

View allI recently had an ultrasound that showed three kidney stones two in my right kidney around 5-6 mm and one in my left kidney's lower pole measuring 9 mm. Can these be treated naturally or would surgery be necessary? Also, is Himalaya CYSTONE effective for this? What foods should I avoid to prevent making it worse?
For kidney stones of this size (5-6mm and 9mm), a combination of natural approaches and medical intervention may be recommended. The 9mm stone is more likely to require medical intervention, while the 5-6mm stones have a higher chance of passing naturally

I'm 32 and considering circumcision but worried about how it might affect erections and sensitivity afterward will there be any long-term changes in those areas
Circumcision in adulthood generally does not lead to significant, long-term negative changes in erectile function or sensitivity. Studies have shown that most men report no noticeable difference in these areas after circumcision, and some even report increased sensitivity and research from the Journal of Sexual Medicine.
