I'm experiencing this weird sensation todayit's like a soft, rhythmic buzzing at the tip or root of my penis, almost like a phone vibrating. It's not painful but quite persistent. My mom passed away on February 24th, and I've been taking care of her for the last couple of weeks. I'm worried I might have caught some kind of infection, although there's no pain, itching, or burning. Could this be something I should be concerned about?

provided you don't have any symptoms other than this buzzing sensation, which doesn't have any proper medical disease. This buzzing sensation can be due to stress,, probably because of losing your mother. Try to manage your stress by meditation or pranayama,, visit psychiatrist if problem persists.

My left kidney has a blockage near the ureter, and doctors think it might be endometriosis, but they can't pinpoint the exact cause. We're still trying to figure out the final diagnosis before surgery. Is surgery the only option for this kind of blockage? I'd really appreciate some clarity on what else could be done.

While surgery is often the primary treatment for ureteral endometriosis, it's not always the first or only option. Before surgery, doctors may consider other approaches, such as ureteral stents, to help manage the blockage and protect the kidney.

I have a 4.2mm and 4.5mm kidney stone in my left kidney with hydronephrosis and calyceal separation of 9mm. My prevoid volume is 289cc and PVR is 20cc which they say is insignificant. Can you explain what the 9mm and 20cc measurements mean? Do I need surgery for this or can it be treated with medication?

The 9mm refers to hydronephrosis severity, and 20cc PVR is normal; stones this size often pass or dissolve with meds.
