View allI have grade 3 varicocele and my left testicle looks much bigger with a dull ache if I get surgery, will it go back to its normal shape? I really want it to look normal again
Yes, in many cases, surgery (varicocelectomy) can help reduce the swelling and size of the affected testicle and alleviate the dull ache associated with a grade 3 varicocele. While some slight changes in appearance may persist, surgery often leads to a significant improvement in testicular size and reduction of pain

my son's ultrasound report shows normal results but they found hydrocele one side is big and one is small is there any medicine or treatment to fix this without needing surgery
A hydrocele may resolve on its own, but if it persists or causes discomfort, surgery is usually recommended. If there’s no pain or other symptoms, observation might be sufficient.
