My foreskin is really tight and sealed, and the tip stays very narrow and closed no matter what. From what I've read online, it sounds like phimosis. I don't have any pain when peeing though. Who should I see about this and what's the usual treatment? Would I need surgery right away?

If you're uncircumcised and your foreskin is too tight, you may have phimosis. While symptoms may be uncomfortable, you can treat phimosis with topical medications or it may go away with age. Usually, the foreskin of an uncircumcised penis can be pulled back from the head (glans) of the penis

I have a 9mm stone in my right ureter and I'm really worried. Can it pass naturally if I drink a lot of water or is surgery the only option? I get pain and vomiting often but not constantly. Are there any natural remedies that might help? I really don't want to go through surgery if possible.

A 9mm kidney stone in the right ureter can be managed through medical intervention or surgery, depending on the stone's composition and your symptoms. While drinking plenty of fluids, especially water, can help, it might not be sufficient for a stone of that size. It's recommended to seek medical advice, as other treatments like extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) or ureteroscopy might be necessary

I'm really curious and a bit worried about the thickness of my penis. It's around 6.8 inches in length, which I'm okay with, but I'm interested in increasing the girth naturally at home. I don't want to use any medical or homeopathic treatments. Are there effective ways or tips you could suggest for this?
