My dad has a 4.52 cm kidney stone in his left kidney and the doctor recommended PCNL surgery. Is PCNL the best option for a stone that large? I'm worried about the procedure and recovery.

I've been having some trouble with my sex life since getting married, and it's becoming a real issue. I'm not really sure which type of doctor I should reach out to for this. Could you help point me in the right direction?
As a newly married couple experiencing sexual difficulties, consider consulting an Andrologist (male specialist) or a Sexologist, who can address issues like erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, or performance anxiety; for females, a Gynecologist or a Sex Therapist can help with concerns like vaginal pain, low libido, or orgasmic difficulties.

I'm having this consistent mild pain in my testicle, mostly on the left side. My doctor thought it might be epididymitis and put me on antibiotics, but it's been three weeks and I'm still in pain and feeling uncomfortable. I've had ultrasounds for my scrotum, kidneys, and bladder, and everything seems normal. I also got my testosterone levels checked, and it's at 327 ngdL. Is this a normal situation, or should I be worried about something else going on?
A testosterone level of 327 ngdL is not typically a cause for concern, and it is not usually linked to epididymitis. If your symptoms persist despite antibiotic treatment, it's important to follow up with your doctor, as there may be other underlying factors contributing to the ongoing pain.
