My doctor prescribed me Drosis XT deflazacort 30mg and tamsulosin 0.4mg twice a day for 10 days along with other meds for kidney stones. Is taking 30mg of steroid twice a day safe for kidney stones? Are steroids usually given for this issue? Will the stones not pass without steroids?

View allI had right inguinal hernia and varicocele surgery with mesh on the right side about 3 months ago but I'm still having pain in the areas marked with green dots in the photo I attached - is this normal or should I be concerned about the pain continuing this long after surgery
While some pain after hernia and varicocele surgery is normal, persistent pain three months post-surgery, especially in the areas marked in your photo, should be evaluated by your doctor. Though pain can persist for a few months, lasting pain beyond that is considered chronic and may indicate complications like nerve damage or inflammation.

Yes possible, but you can only wait if you don’t have intense pain, vomiting, fever and decreased kidney function. You can try Cap. Tamfil S once a day for 7 days. Filter urine for stone. If is doesn’t come out, then you need a ureteroscopy
