I have a 4mm calculus in my left vesicoureteric junction and mild left hydroureteronephrosis, plus a 2mm microlith in the interpolar region of my left kidney. Should I be considering surgery for this or are there other treatment options? I'm a bit worried about what this means for my kidney health.

I'm experiencing something a bit unusual and I'm pretty concerned about it. Whenever I'm in the shower and I rub my scrotum, this white-colored substance gets discharged. It's been happening for about 45 months now, and it's not going away. Also, it seems to take about 23 days for this substance to build up again. There's also an unpleasant smell when this stuff comes out. What could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?

I have grade 2 varicocele on the left side and grade 1 on the right, with a sperm count of 8 million/ml and very low motility at 10% and morphology at 1%. I'm considering surgery but unsure which method is better laparoscopic or microsurgery. What's the difference between these two in terms of repairing varicocele, and which one would be more suitable for my condition?

Hey, so my dad's testicles started bleeding even though he didn't get hurt or anything. We noticed his blood pressure was really high at 19090 mmHg when we went for first aid. They said a vein might have burst, causing the bleeding. Could his high blood pressure be the reason for this? Also, what should we do next? Should we go see a doctor straight away or anything else we need to consider?

Yes, high blood pressure (19090 mmHg) can cause a varicocele (enlarged vein) to rupture, leading to testicular bleeding; immediate medical attention is crucial to rule out other potential causes, such as testicular torsion or tumor, and to prevent further complications.
