what cream or oral medicine can help treat phimosis without needing surgery i really want to avoid surgery if possible
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For mild to moderate phimosis, topical steroid creams and stretching exercises are often the first line of treatment, with the goal of softening and stretching the foreskin to allow it to retract more easily. Topical steroid creams, such as betamethasone valerate (Betnovate) or hydrocortisone, are commonly used. Stretching exercises, when combined with cream use, can further enhance the foreskin's elasticity and ability to retract

View allCan homeopathy really treat a grade 3 varicocele without surgery? How long does it usually take to see full recovery, and is it a permanent fix or just temporary relief? I'm worried about whether this will actually work long-term.
Homeopathy may help with symptoms, but evidence for treating grade 3 varicocele is limited. Surgery is usually more effective for long-term results.

I have a 4mm stone in my left ureter and I'm worried if it can pass on its own or if I'll need surgery. Right now I'm taking Drotin M for the pain but I'm not sure what to expect next. Can you help me understand my options?
A 4mm stone in the ureter can sometimes pass on its own, but if it doesn’t, surgery may be needed. Drotin M can help with pain management, but follow up with your doctor for further treatment options.

I'm really worried because I've been having these pus cells in my urine and dealing with body aches, fever, and feeling really dehydrated. It's been burning when I pass urine too, which is super uncomfortable. I already tried some allopathic medicine, but it didn't help at all. Can you tell me what might be going on and what I should do next?
It sounds like you may be dealing with a urinary tract infection (UTI), which can cause the symptoms you're describing, such as fever, body pain, dehydration, and burning during urination. Since the alopathic medication hasn't provided relief, I recommend revisiting your doctor for further evaluation and possibly a different treatment approach or additional tests to address the infection effectively.
