My dad has a 25mm stone in his right kidney and a 13mm stone in the left one but his creatinine levels and kidney function are normal. Since he also has heart issues, is there any way to get rid of the stones with just medicines or does he definitely need surgery?

A 25mm and 13mm kidney stone with normal renal function may sometimes be managed medically, but due to heart issues, surgical options like RIRS or PCNL need cardiac clearance first.

I'm noticing that when I pee, there are two streamsone's stronger and the other's weaker. This causes a lot of spraying, but there's no pain or burning. I'm trying to figure out what's going on. Could this be something I should be worried about?

The presence of two streams of urine, with one being weaker, and spraying, without pain or burning sensation, could be indicative of a urethral stricture, bladder neck contracture, or a condition called urethral duplication, but it's essential to consult a urologist

I'm recently married and we're thinking about having a baby. But I'm a bit worried because my penis is only around 2 to 2.5 inches when not erect and grows to about 4 inches during intercourse. The foreskin feels really tight, which makes things uncomfortable, and I notice my erection doesnt last long. I tried using coconut oil, and while it helped a bit with penetration, Im still left feeling not fully satisfied. Also, the fluid seems to come out too quickly after ejaculation. Is all this normal? Are there lotions for tight foreskin or is it okay to use oil on the penis? I'm looking for some advice on these concerns.
