I've noticed that whenever I drink water, I end up needing to use the toilet in just about 5 minutes. Because of this, I try not to drink too much water, especially at night. It's kind of worrying me, and I'm not sure what I should do about it. Any ideas?

My father was just diagnosed with 179cc prostate and had a sudden urine blockage so they put in a catheter. Can this be treated with medication or will he need surgery?
With a large prostate (179cc) and sudden urinary blockage, treatment for your father will likely involve a combination of medication and potentially surgery. While medication, like alpha-blockers, can help relax muscles in the urinary tract and improve urine flow, the size of the prostate and the sudden blockage suggest surgery might be necessary

I have a 7mm kidney stone stuck in my right pelviureteric junction can medicines help pass it or is surgery the only option? What would you recommend?
A 7mm kidney stone lodged in the right pelviureteric junction (the junction where the kidney connects to the ureter) is unlikely to pass naturally and often requires medical intervention. While medications can help with some types of kidney stones, they are generally ineffective for calcium stones, which are the most common type. Surgery is often recommended for stones of this size and location
