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'm a 34-year-old male with a 9mm kidney stone and my doctor recommended surgery but I have to travel abroad this month Is there any way to treat it without surgery I'm really worried about this
While a 9mm kidney stone might typically require surgery, there are some non-surgical options to consider, especially if travel is a concern. One possibility is shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), which uses sound waves to break down the stone into smaller pieces that can pass through the urinary tract. Another option is ureteroscopy, where a small camera is inserted through the urethra to locate and remove the stone, or to break it down with laser or other tools.

My 5th grader has phimosis where the skin almost fully covers the head and won't pull back but he can still pee normally. Is surgery or laser treatment the only option or are there other ways to manage this without going that route?
circumcision is advised.
