Are there any non-surgical treatments for bilateral grade 2 varicocele besides embolization? I'm wondering if just meds, exercises, or even changing my mattress could help improve it without surgery. Also, does varicocele affect penis size?

my foreskin is really tight at the tip and it's causing discomfort is there any treatment for phimosis other than surgery what options do i have
Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin can't be pulled back from the head of the penis. It's normal in babies and small children, and they usually grow out of it. It can also be caused by infections, scar tissue, and skin diseases, and may need to be treated with steroid cream or surgery
