View allI'm 19 and recently I've been having some issues that are really worrying me. For the past three months, I haven't been getting any erections or feeling any drive. My testicles also seem to have become soft and smaller, and there's this constant pain that makes it uncomfortable to sit sometimes. Do you have any idea what's going on? I'm really concerned and would love some advice.

I've had a 5mm kidney stone on the left side for the past 3 months and medicines haven't worked. What surgery or treatment can help remove it quickly?
For a 5mm kidney stone that hasn't passed with conservative measures, several surgical and minimally invasive procedures can be used for quick removal. These include shock wave lithotripsy, ureteroscopy, and percutaneous nephrolithotomy. While a 5mm stone can sometimes pass on its own, prolonged discomfort or complications may warrant intervention.
