I have an 8mm stone stuck in my upper ureter and have been taking both homeopathic and allopathic medicines like distone. My doctor suggested surgery saying it might block urine flow if it stays, but it's been 20 days and I'm peeing normally. Can an 8mm stone still allow urine to pass through a 45mm ureter without causing blockage?

needs P/E for better advice.

Ive got these three kidney stones, around 10mm each, and Im a bit worried about them. One has already moved into my bladder and looks like the other two are on their way. Im on alfuzosin and drinking enough fluids, which seems to help with urination. Im curious to know when and how these stones will pass through. Could you provide some insights? Im reaching out from India.

that can't be predicted but for sure it will pass out in urine

I've been dealing with constant pain from varicocele in my testicles and really don't want to opt for surgery. Are there any other effective treatment options available? Also, could you recommend any specialists in Delhi who specifically treat varicocele cases?

Ayurvedic herbs and physiotherapy may support varicocele symptoms but recurrence risk is higher without surgical repair.Delhi urologists like Dr‚ÄØSingh\@AIIMS specialize in non-surgical management.
