What are the common symptoms of kidney damage or failure after a urethrotomy surgery for stricture? My kidneys were swollen before the procedure according to the radiologist and I'm a bit concerned about what signs to watch out for

Post-urethrotomy symptoms like fatigue, back pain, or reduced output may suggest kidney stress. Follow-up tests and nephrologist consult are important.

6.5 mm kidney stone may pass with hydration, tamsulosin, and pain meds—if stuck or causing infection, lithotripsy or laser surgery may be needed.

My dad's ultrasound shows his prostate is enlarged at 56x51x50 mm with a volume of 77.7 cc. The doctor suggested surgery, but I'm wondering if medication could work instead is the size too big for meds to help?

I'm experiencing this constant burning and heating sensation down there, and it's really bothering me. My ultrasound report mentioned something about "subtle mucosal irregularity in the trigone region" of my urinary bladder. I've been trying to drink more water, but it doesn't seem to help the pain at all. What could be going on, and what should I do next?
The symptoms you are experiencing could be due to a urinary tract infection or inflammation in the bladder. To help alleviate the burning sensation, you can take an antibiotic like Ciprofloxacin. Additionally, you can take Phenazopyridine. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
