I have a grade 3 varicocele on my left side and I'm trying to decide between open or microscopic surgery which one has better results? Also, can you recommend any doctors in Pune who specialize in microscopic varicocele surgery?

For a Grade 3 varicocele, microscopic varicocelectomy is generally considered superior to open surgery, offering potentially better results with fewer complications. It's considered the "gold standard" in many cases

View allMy foreskin won't pull back whether I'm hard or soft should I see a dermatologist or a urologist for this? Also, if surgery is needed, how long does recovery usually take?
You should see a urologist for a non-retractable foreskin (phimosis). If surgery like circumcision is needed, recovery usually takes 1–2 weeks with minimal downtime.
