I'm really worried about having two stones, one that's 14mm in the kidney and another 20 mm in the urinary bladder, especially since I also have heart issues. Could this cause any complications, and what should I do about it?

For the 14mm stone, medication such as Tamsulosin may be attempted in trying to let the stone pass, but the larger stone will definintely need surgical intervention. In such a condition, it may be best to treat both renal calculi with lithotripsy. Since the patient has a cardiac disease history, it is imperative to get clearance from the consulting cardiologist before proceeding.

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.

I'm experiencing this pinching feeling in my scrotum, kind of like someone poking me with a pin, and it's super embarrassing when I'm trying to sit in public. Adjusting my testicles or penis doesnt seem to help at all, and I just can't resist the urge to itch down there. It comes on at random times and sometimes the pain is just too much to handle. When I look at my scrotum, it seems completely normal. What's going on?
