If your foreskin doesn't pull back and is causing discomfort, it could be phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. While some cases of phimosis resolve on their own, surgery might be necessary if conservative treatments don't work. The cost of surgery can vary depending on the procedure and your location, but you can expect to pay between ‚Çπ5,000 and ‚Çπ35,000 in India

I've been having frequent urination issues and a CT scan showed a 10x3.5 mm stone in my right kidney and a 2.5 mm one in my left kidney. Can homeopathy help dissolve these stones and how long would it take or is surgery the only option? Also, could these stones cause kidney damage if they don't pass right away?

What size of kidney stone can be removed without surgery if there are stones in both the left and right kidney? I'm really anxious about whether it's possible to deal with them without an operation.

Renal caliculi of size less than 7mm needs no surgical intervention for few pts it can be upto 9mm also but it is more than that and causing obstruction,that needs to be removed.
