Had circumcision surgery 8 days ago but there's still swelling and a ring-like appearance. When will the swelling go down and when can I expect it to look normal? Also is it okay to take regular baths now? I've attached a pic for reference

I'm experiencing this dragging sensation on the left side of my testicle and the color Doppler test showed I have a grade IV extra testicular varicocele on that side. My doctor mentioned surgery as the only solution, but I'm wondering if there might be any other treatments available. Could you offer some advice or alternatives?

While surgery is often recommended for high-grade varicoceles like Grade IV, alternative treatments may include embolization, a minimally invasive procedure to block blood flow to the varicocele, or sclerotherapy, injecting a solution to shrink the varicocele; however, consult your doctor or a urologist to discuss these options and determine the best course of treatment for your specific case.

my foreskin won't pull back without a lot of pain is there any cream or medicine that can help instead of needing surgery

Topical steroid creams may help retract the foreskin; if ineffective, circumcision remains a definitive treatment.

I'm a bit worried about my recent urine test results. It says there are 50 leukocytes in my urine. Does this indicate a mild, medium, or high infection? And should I be concerned about whether the infection is mild or severe? Got a test report too, if that helps. Would appreciate any advice.
