I had varicocele surgery about 25 days ago but there's still swelling in my scrotum how long does it usually take for the swelling to go away completely? Is this normal or should I be concerned?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Swelling after varicocele surgery is common and usually subsides within 2-4 weeks. If you're still experiencing swelling at 25 days, it's within the expected timeframe, but it's always best to consult your doctor for reassurance or to address any specific concerns

View allI have phimosis and really don't want to get surgery or a circumcision are there any other treatment options that could help me without going under the knife?
Yes, phimosis can often be treated without surgery. Non-surgical options include topical steroid creams to reduce inflammation and improve foreskin elasticity, manual stretching exercises to gradually loosen the foreskin, and, if an infection is present, antibiotics or antifungal creams

I've been dealing with a hydrocele for six years. It doesn't hurt anymore, but its size is a real issue, especially when I try to wear tighter pants. It's really uncomfortable. Could you give me some advice on how to reduce its size or manage it better?
Alerid syrup is an antihistamine, which may not be effective for a cold. Hicet syrup, containing cetirizine and paracetamol, might provide relief from cold symptoms. Consider adding: 1. Steam inhalation 2. Saline nasal drops 3. Warm liquids (tea, soup) 4. Rest
