View allI had varicocele surgery two months ago but still have testicle pain. The recent scan shows some veins are still there and it's now grade 1. Do I need another surgery or are there other options to manage this?
It's understandable to be concerned about ongoing pain after varicocele surgery, especially with a grade 1 varicocele still present. While some vein persistence is normal, persistent pain warrants further investigation. While repeat surgery could be an option, other conservative measures and interventions should be considered first

I've noticed this really large vein on the top side of my penis for the past few months, maybe more than a couple of years now. It's not painful, but it just seems off and looks quite pronounced. I haven't talked to a doctor about it yet, but I'm starting to get a bit worried. What do you think I should do next?
A prominent vein on the penis can be concerning. Here's a detailed guide to help you: *Possible Causes* 1. *Varicocele*: Enlarged veins within the scrotum. 2. *Penile venous leak*: Abnormal blood flow through penile veins. 3. *Thrombophlebitis*: Blood clot in a penile vein. 4. *Penile vein thrombosis*: Blood clot in a penile vein. 5. *Mondor's disease*: Thrombophlebitis of the superficial dorsal vein of the penis. *Diagnosis* 1. *Physical examination*: A doctor will examine the penis and scrotum to check for any abnormalities. 2. *Ultrasound or Doppler study*: To evaluate blood flow and check for any blockages or abnormalities in the penile veins. 3. *Blood tests*: To rule out any underlying medical conditions that may be contributing to the prominent vein. *Treatment* 1. *Varicocele*: Treatment may involve embolization, surgery, or lifestyle changes. 2. *Penile venous leak*: Treatment may involve surgery or lifestyle changes. 3. *Thrombophlebitis*: Treatment may involve anticoagulation medication, pain management, and compression. 4. *Mondor's disease*: Treatment may involve anticoagulation medication, pain management, and compression. *Advice* 1. *Consult a urologist or a primary care physician*: For a proper evaluation and diagnosis. 2. *Avoid self-diagnosis*: Don't try to diagnose yourself based on online research. 3. *Don't delay seeking medical attention*: Untreated conditions can lead to complications. 4. *Maintain a healthy lifestyle*: Eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly, and manage stress.

I've been dealing with UTI issues again. I had one back in November 2016 and took norflox then, and it cleared up. This time, the problem started on April 3rd, and I took norflox for 5 days along with citralka syrup. It got better, but then it came back after just 2 days. Now it's continuing every day. What should I do? Is there something different I should try or be concerned about?
Recurring UTI symptoms despite antibiotic treatment, including norflox, suggest a possible underlying issue, such as antibiotic resistance, incomplete treatment, or an underlying anatomical or functional abnormality; consider consulting a urologist
