I have a 6mm kidney stone stuck in the middle of my left ureter and really want to avoid surgery if possible. Are there any medicines that can help pass it naturally? I've heard stones this size can sometimes be treated without surgery but not sure what options work best.

My dad had prostate surgery 3 years ago but still has urinary retention issues and has been dealing with prostate problems for like 20 years. The doctor just put in a urine drainage bag. Is this normal after so many years of prostate issues or should we be worried about something else going on?

Yes, long-standing prostate issues can lead to bladder damage and retention even after surgery. A urologist may assess for bladder dysfunction or urethral narrowing with urodynamic studies.
