I have an 8.33 mm kidney stone stuck in my ureter about 7 cm from the bladder. Is there a chance it can pass on its own or will I need surgery? I'm currently taking Elements Uri flush syrup but not sure if it's enough to help

An 8.33 mm kidney stone stuck in the ureter, 7 cm from the bladder, has a lower chance of passing naturally, but it's not impossible. While the Urology Associates of Central Missouri indicates that stones larger than 6 mm rarely pass on their own, the precise location and other factors can influence the outcome. Your current use of Elements Uri flush syrup may help, but it's crucial to consult a urologist for personalized advice and potential treatment options.

I've been having this weird vibration feeling at the tip of my penis since yesterday and sometimes there's this inflammation after peeing. Not too long ago, I was treated for a burning sensation during urination and I took some antibiotics like ceftum and cefixime, but they haven't helped much yet. I've also been feeling some pain in my lower abdomen and back. What do you think I should do?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted infection. I recommend you start taking a combination of antibiotics such as "Doxycycline" along with "Metronidazole" under the guidance of a specialist. Additionally, you can take "Ibuprofen" 400mg three times a day for pain relief. Make sure to drink plenty of water to help flush out the infection. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm kind of worried because I noticed something unusual with my masturbation routine. A few days ago, semen was coming out as usual, but the last two times, even though it felt like it did, nothing actually came out. Is this something normal, or should I be concerned about it?

Consult a urologist to discuss your symptoms, as the sensation of ejaculation without semen release, also known as "dry orgasm" or "retrograde ejaculation," can be caused by various factors, including over-masturbation, prostate issues, or certain medications, and they can provide personalized guidance and reassurance.
