My right ureter is a bit dilated in the middle and there's a 7mm stone in the lowest part. Do I really need surgery for this or can it pass with just medicines? I'm a bit worried about what to do next.

A 7mm kidney stone in the lower ureter, especially with associated dilation, likely won't pass on its own and surgery may be needed. While medications can help with pain and potentially aid passage, they are not a definitive solution for a 7mm stone.

I've noticed that after I eat really spicy foods and then go to the bathroom, it feels like it burns and there's some pain when I pee. Is this something I should be worried about?
Could be a sign of a urinary tract infection (UTI). I recommend taking an over-the-counter medication called AZO Urinary Pain Relief to help alleviate the burning sensation and pain. You can also drink plenty of water to help flush out the bacteria causing the infection. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

I've been having this strange ache coming from the inside of my testicle whenever I'm driving or just going about my day. It gets worse when I try to massage it. Could someone give me some advice via email? I'd really feel more comfortable if it was from a female doctor.
It sounds like you may be experiencing testicular discomfort, which could be related to a few different issues, such as muscle strain or an underlying condition like epididymitis or varicocele. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for a proper examination and diagnosis. If you prefer a female doctor, I suggest looking for one in your area or through telemedicine platforms.
