my dad has a 7mm calculus in his left mid ureter and the doctor recommended urs surgery can we wait a bit longer to see if it passes naturally or is surgery urgent
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A 7mm kidney stone in the left mid ureter is unlikely to pass spontaneously, and surgery (URSL, or ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy) may be recommended. While you can explore waiting a bit to see if the stone passes naturally, especially if pain is manageable, surgery is generally indicated for stones of this size. However, discuss this with your dad's doctor to determine the best course of action, considering his individual situation.

View allI'm really struggling with the effects of masturbation on my mental and physical health. It leaves me feeling guilty, depressed, and like I'm losing my self-confidence. I'm also experiencing memory loss, trouble making decisions, and both back and neck pain. My heart even races, I feel lazy afterward, and I'm noticing some discharge during sexual feelings. Sometimes I end up discharging really quickly, like within 10 seconds while watching porn. I just want to understand if there's an effective treatment or advice that could help because it's starting to impact my life and career. Could you give me some guidance on this?
It seems that your symptoms are related to emotional and physical stress triggered by excessive masturbation and porn use. Reducing or eliminating these habits, focusing on self-care, practicing mindfulness, and seeking professional help from a therapist or counselor can help improve both mental and physical health. Regular exercise, a healthy diet, and stress management techniques can also support recovery.

I've been dealing with weak erections and really early ejaculation, which I think might be from a lot of masturbation during my teenage years. It's super frustrating, and I'm just wondering how I can fix this issue now. Any advice on how to tackle this?
To address this issue, you can try using medications such as Viagra (Sildenafil) for improving erections and Priligy (Dapoxetine) for managing premature ejaculation. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques, engaging in regular physical exercise, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can also help improve your sexual function.
