My brother has been diagnosed with kidney stones and is in constant pain. The report shows multiple stones can these be treated with medication or will surgery be necessary? The pain seems unbearable for him and we're really worried about the next steps.

Kidney stones are painful, and whether they can be treated with medication or require surgery depends on their size, location, and the severity of the pain. Some stones may pass on their own with increased fluid intake and pain medication, while others may require procedures like extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) or surgery

View allI've been wondering if masturbation has any connection to premature ejaculation. Like, does it cause it or make it worse? Also, how can I tell if I'm actually dealing with premature ejaculation? It would be great to get some clarity on this.
Masturbation itself doesn't cause premature ejaculation, but excessive or hurried habits may affect control. Premature ejaculation is typically defined as ejaculating within a minute of penetration or before the person wishes, and it often causes distress or relationship issues. If this happens frequently, it might be helpful to consult a healthcare provider.

I'm really concerned because about an hour ago, I masturbated in the washroom and afterwards noticed the head of my penis turned a yellowish color. I'm worried about what this color change could mean. Is this something serious? What steps should I take to address this? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
A temporary yellowish discoloration of the penis head after masturbation is likely due to irritation, friction, or minor trauma, and may be accompanied by swelling or redness; apply a cold compress, maintain good hygiene, and avoid further irritation; if the discoloration persists, is severe, or accompanied by discharge, pain, or difficulty urinating, consult a urologist

I'm wondering why my urine is yellow every morning. During the day, as long as I'm constantly drinking water, my urine looks fine. But if I skip drinking water for a couple of hours or more, it turns yellow again. I aim to drink about 5-6 liters of water each day, but obviously, I can't while I'm sleeping, so the issue comes back every morning. Could this be a sign of something serious? Should I consult a specific type of doctor? I had a full body check-up six months ago, and they said I was completely fine. Also, I've been having some digestion problems. What do you suggest I do about all this?
The new symptoms of heavy gas and sharp back pain require attention. Stop taking LMX 500 and Rabesec 20 immediately and consult your gastroenterologist as soon as possible. In the meantime, consider taking an antacid or a gas-relieving medication like Simethicone (Eno) to alleviate symptoms. Apply a warm compress to your back to help manage the pain. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water and consider a bland diet to ease digestion. Seek medical attention promptly to adjust your treatment plan and address the new symptoms.
