My mom has been having really sharp pain on her left side and threw up a few times. The ultrasound showed a 7mm stone in her upper left ureter. Is surgery the only way to get rid of it or can medicines help pass the stone naturally?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
While 7mm kidney stones often require intervention, it's not always surgery. Medication, like alpha-blockers, can help relax the ureter and aid natural passage, especially with supportive measures like hydration and pain management. However, depending on the stone's location, size, and your mom's overall health, surgery might still be the best option.

View allI'm a 17-year-old guy and I'm really worried about a few things. I've got a pretty small penis, like about 3 inches, and I've been masturbating every day for the past three years. I just can't seem to stop. I'm also dealing with premature ejaculation, which happens really fast, and there are wrinkles on my penis. Is there any way to increase penis size or help with these issues?
If you have a problem with obtaining and maintaining erections, you can seek help from a sexual health expert, who can prescribe you medication to deal with Erectile Dysfunction, and also Premature Ejaculation. If you are referring to increasing the size of the erect penis, there is no medication to facilitate that. Cosmetic surgeries are possible, but often expensive and rare. You can visit a specialist for further information on the matter.
