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

I'm really struggling with something and need some advice. I've been addicted to masturbation for almost 15 years now, and although I do it less often these days, I'm dealing with some serious issues because of it. I have IBS, chronic fatigue, hair loss, fatty liver, and memory problems. It's tough for me to concentrate, and I often feel depressed with really low energy levels. Can you please help me figure out how to fix this situation?
