I've got some meftal spas tablets at home. Is it okay to take them for kidney stone pain since my family doctor prescribed them to me before? I'm a bit worried and want to make sure it's safe.

Focal gliosis in the right posterior periventricular region indicates:
- Gliosis: Scarring or reactive change in brain tissue
- Periventricular region: Area surrounding the ventricles (fluid-filled spaces) in the brain
Possible causes:
- Past injury or infection
- Stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA)
- Demyelinating diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis)
- Tumors or cysts
Treatment and seriousness depend on underlying cause:
- If caused by past injury or infection, treatment might focus on managing symptoms.
- If related to demyelinating disease or tumor, treatment may involve disease-modifying therapies or surgery.
Recommendation:
Consult a neurologist or neurosurgeon for:
- Detailed evaluation
- Determining underlying cause
- Developing a personalized treatment plan

View allI had varicocele surgery about 25 days ago but there's still swelling in my scrotum how long does it usually take for the swelling to go away completely? Is this normal or should I be concerned?
Swelling after varicocele surgery is common and usually subsides within 2-4 weeks. If you're still experiencing swelling at 25 days, it's within the expected timeframe, but it's always best to consult your doctor for reassurance or to address any specific concerns

I'm 25 and have been diagnosed with varicocele is there any way to treat it without surgery? I've attached my report and really want to explore non-surgical options if possible. What would you recommend?
Yes, it's possible to manage a varicocele without surgery, especially if it's mild and not causing fertility issues. Non-surgical options include lifestyle changes, ice packs, over-the-counter pain relievers, and a procedure called embolization.

I've had undescended testicles since birth, and now only one is in my scrotum. I've never talked about this with anyone, but it's made me worry about my small penis size and whether I can have children. Should I get treatment or surgery for this, or is it not a problem? Also, how much would the treatment cost?
urologist opinion needed.
