I have a 13mm kidney stone in the lower pole of my right kidney and it's causing frequent stomach pain. Is it possible to treat this with medicine alone or will I need laser surgery? I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if there are other options.

Question

I've been having frequent urine problems and the doctor prescribed me pyridium, urispas, and alkacitral syrup. This is the third time I'm dealing with this issue. The doc mentioned my urine pipe is a bit shrunk and suggested surgery, but I really don't want to go through that. Are there any other options or treatments I can try instead of surgery?

I'm unmarried and usually masturbate 2 or 3 times a week. I'm worried if this could affect my health or sexual life in the future. Is there anything I should do to stop or reduce it? Could it be causing any internal issues that I should know about?
