For someone with BPH, heart issues, and diabetes, the safest surgery option would likely involve a minimally invasive procedure like Transurethral Incision of the Prostate (TUIP) or laser surgery (HoLEP or ThuLEP). TUIP is generally safer than TURP due to a lower risk of complications like bleeding and requires less anesthesia. Laser surgery offers less bleeding, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery compared to traditional TURP

My foreskin feels really tight when I get an erection and it's causing discomfort. I don't have issues when I'm not erect, but during arousal, it gets too tight. Is there any way to fix this without surgery? I'd prefer non-surgical options if possible.

Topical steroid creams and stretching exercises may help phimosis; consult a urologist before considering circumcision.

I have a 10mm stone in my right kidney and a 5mm one in my left kidney will these pass on their own or do I need surgery?

A 10mm kidney stone is unlikely to pass on its own and will likely require surgical intervention. A 5mm stone has a higher chance of passing naturally, but it's also possible that it may require treatment depending on the individual's situation

I'm 19 and have right-sided cryptorchidism that wasn't treated when I was younger because my parents didn't know about it. Now I'm worried what's the best option for me, medicine or surgery? Should I go for orchiopexy or orchidectomy?
