How Are Varicoceles Treated? Most varicoceles need no special treatment. A varicocele is usually harmless and more than likely won't affect a guy's ability to father a child later in life. But if there is any pain and swelling, the doctor may prescribe an anti-inflammatory medicine to relieve it.

My DPTA scan showed my right kidney is mildly enlarged and hydronephrotic but has good cortical function and passive pelvic stasis without significant obstruction. Do I need surgery for this or can it be managed without an operation?

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I've been having an issue with the skin on my penis, specifically where it connects underneath it's only about 1 cm attached, and it feels too tight. Everything else seems fine, but when I'm having sex, it gets painful because the skin can't pull back all the way. I looked it up and think it might be a tight frenulum. The pictures I found online match exactly what's going on with me. Would surgery be the right fix for this?

It's possible you have a tight frenulum, also known as frenulum breve, which can cause pain during sexual activity and difficulty retracting the foreskin. While a surgical procedure, known as frenuloplasty, might be an option to lengthen the frenulum, it's best to discuss your concerns and potential treatment options with a doctor. They can properly assess your condition and determine the best course of action for you

I'm dealing with a really uncomfortable situation here. An ant bit me on the penis, and now it's all swollen. What should I do or use for this?

It seems like the swelling is due to an allergic reaction to the ant bite. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and use a mild hydrocortisone cream or an antihistamine cream like calamine lotion to soothe the area. If the swelling worsens or you experience severe discomfort, consult a doctor.
