My brother has phimosis and can't pull his foreskin back. He only noticed this recently but doesn't have issues with erections or peeing. However, he's been experiencing premature ejaculation during masturbation. Is this because of phimosis? What are the treatment options, and can surgery be done at his age? His wedding is in August would recovery be possible by then? Need advice as soon as possible.

I've been dealing with a kidney stone for about a week now - it's 4.2 mm in size. Every morning I get this sharp pain and it's really uncomfortable. I'm already getting treatment but I'm worried if this might need surgery or if it can pass on its own

can pass by its own with lots of fluid.

I recently went to a urologist who told me my testicles are undescended and still in my lower abdomen based on an ultrasound scan. I'm 26 and worried it might be too late to fix this. Can you recommend a good doctor or hospital in Bangalore for this? Also, any idea what the surgery might cost roughly?

Surgery is the best option, we cant do anything much with medication, so go for surgery.
