My dad just had an ultrasound done, and they found an 11 mm stone in his right kidney. He's not feeling any pain or discomfort right now. Should we be considering surgery, or are there medications that might help with this? What do you think?

11mm is a big stone. It is unlikely to pass on its own. Better to get it removed

I've been feeling really anxious lately because after masturbating a few days back, my penis and testicles suddenly felt numb the next day. I went to see a doctor, and they checked everything and said there's no issue, but I'm still worried because it feels like my testes are kind of lifeless. Can someone tell me what might be going on?

I have grade 1 varicocele in my left testicle, and some doctors say surgery isn't needed, but I'm noticing shrinkage in my testicles, reduced penis size, erectile dysfunction, and daily pain below the left testicle. I feel like my testosterone might be dropping, and it's affecting my energy and motivation. Should I consider laparoscopic surgery, microsurgery, or embolization to fix this and get back to my active life? What's the best option for grade 1 varicocele?

Given your Grade 1 varicocele symptoms, which include testicle shrinkage, reduced penis size, erectile dysfunction, pain, and suspected low testosterone, a surgical intervention might be beneficial. While some doctors may initially suggest observation for Grade 1 varicoceles, the progression of your symptoms suggests that surgery could improve your quality of life and address potential long-term fertility issues.

I'm wondering if Musli Power Extra is really effective for dealing with impotence. I tried it just yesterday, but I didn't notice any difference. Is it something that takes more time to work, or should I be looking at other options?
