I'm thinking about using lignocaine jelly because I've heard it can help reduce the sensitivity of the glans penis, but I'm wondering how this might affect the process of getting an erection. I'm planning to apply it, but I'm a bit confused about how it all works together. Could you explain how lignocaine might impact erection and whether it's safe to use for this purpose?

Lignocaine jelly works by numbing the area it is applied to, reducing sensitivity. However, an erection is primarily caused by physical and psychological stimulation, leading to increased blood flow to the penis, not just sensitivity. So, even if the glans penis is less sensitive, the erection can still occur due to these other factors.

I woke up this morning with really bad pain and found out I have a 10mm stone stuck in my ureter at the EVJ. I'm worried I might need surgery. Is there a chance homeopathic medicine could help me avoid surgery? And if it doesnt work, would a lithotripsy be a good alternative? My whole family has issues with uric acid, so I think it might be a uric acid stone.

For a 10mm calculi stuck in the ureter, it is unlikely that homeopathic medicines alone will be effective in passing the stone. Surgery may be necessary in this case, especially if the stone is causing severe pain or obstruction. Lithotripsy, a procedure that uses shock waves to break up the stone, may be a suitable option for a 10mm stone. However, the choice of treatment will depend on various factors including the specific characteristics of the stone and your overall health. It is important to consult with a urologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

I'm dealing with 34 kidney stones spread across both my kidneys, each about 4 to 5 mm in size. I'm considering taking Cystone to help with this, but I'm not sure if that's the right approach. How should I go about it if it's recommended? What dosage and time frame would be best for something like this?

yes continue all the medications..
