My right testicle hangs about an inch lower than the left is this normal? How can I increase the length if needed? Are there any diet changes or would surgery be the only option?

View allI've recently noticed I have phimosis where my foreskin only retracts about half an inch when erect and it's a bit painful if I try to go further. When soft, it retracts a little more without pain but I'm too nervous to push it. I've read about treatments like steroid creams, stretching devices, and surgery but I'm not sure what's actually effective. What's the best non-surgical option for me?
This is known as paraphimosis and it's a medical emergency. Immediate treatment is needed to avoid serious complications like restricted blood flow to the penis. A doctor may be able to return the foreskin to its original position. Sometimes surgery to remove the foreskin (circumcision) may be recommended

I've been having issues with frequent urination lately and my test results showed low creatinine levels and borderline uric acid. I also have phimosis which I plan to get surgery for soon, but right now I really want to figure out what's causing the constant need to pee. Could this be related to my creatinine levels or something else?
Frequent urination may be due to infection, bladder issues, or other causes—not directly linked to low creatinine—urology review advised.

I have a 2mm kidney stone in both kidneys and a 4mm one stuck in my left ureter. Do I need surgery or can medicines dissolve them? How long is it safe to wait before considering surgery?
Kidney Stone Overview, Symptoms, Diagnosis & Treatment Options For a 2mm stone in both kidneys and a 4mm stone in the ureter, the first step is to try and pass the stone naturally. While some medications can aid in passing stones, surgery is typically not needed unless the stone causes pain, infection, or blockage. It's generally safe to wait for 4-6 weeks before considering surgery if the stone hasn't passed and no other complications arise
