My husband is 29 and has been dealing with kidney stones for three weeks now. There are two stones in his right kidney 6mm and 7mm. We've been following a strict diet and trying home remedies along with some medicines, but we're worried about side effects. Since we're newly married, we really want to avoid surgery. Can you suggest some effective ayurvedic churnas or treatments to help flush them out naturally?

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy,uretroscopy and extrscorporeal shock wave lithotripsy are advised.

My friend is 31 and has been trying to have kids for the last 6 years. He just got an ultrasound scan that showed left varicocele. Is this likely causing fertility issues and can it be treated with medication or does he need surgery

A left varicocele, especially in someone actively trying to conceive, could be a contributing factor to infertility. While some varicoceles don't require treatment, if it's significantly affecting sperm quality or production, surgery might be considered. Medications may help manage pain or discomfort, but they won't address the underlying cause of the varicocele
