Question

I'm really worried because I've been diagnosed with a varicocele grade 3, and my right and left testis seem to be normal. According to the doctor, the veins are dilated and measure 3 mm at rest. My semen analysis shows sperm motility is only 18, while it should be 50 or more. The doctor mentioned that my infertility might be due to this varicocele issue. Could this really be affecting my fertility, and what are my options?

With a Grade 3 Varicocele diagnosis, characterized by dilated veins measuring 3mm at rest, and low sperm motility of 18%, your doctor's assessment that the varicocele is likely contributing to your infertility is reasonable; consider consulting a urologist or andrologist to discuss surgical options, such as varicocelectomy, to repair the varicocele and potentially improve sperm motility and overall fertility.

Question

I've had this discomfort in the middle of my penis corona for quite a while, and it's really starting to bother me. It's not super painful, but it's irritating enough that I've had to change how I masturbate, and it's been swollen for a long time. I've also noticed that the pain tends to get a bit worse after each time I masturbate. I have had sex before, but that was quite some time ago, long before all this started. What could be going on here? Should I be worried about this swelling and irritation?
