I'm 28 and dealing with phimosis is there any way to treat it without surgery? I'm really hoping to avoid an operation if possible, but not sure what other options might work for someone my age

View allHey, so I recently found out I have Epididymo Orchitis after visiting the doctor because my right testicle was really swollen. I'm on antibiotics now, but I'm really curious how long it's going to take for this swelling to completely disappear. Any idea what the usual timeline is for something like this?
Swelling from epididymo-orchitis usually begins to improve within a few days of starting antibiotics, but it can take **2-4 weeks** for the swelling to completely resolve. Rest, scrotal support, and anti-inflammatory medications can help speed up recovery. If swelling persists, follow up with your doctor.

It's been 25 days since my ZSR circumcision surgery. The wound is mostly healed but I still have some side scars, and for the last 5 days, I've been having pain on the frenulum side. The doctor suggested massaging with vitamin E oil, but I'm not sure why the pain is still there. Feeling really stressed about it what could be causing this?
Stress.normal nothing to worry ok.

I have a grade 3 varicocele but was told surgery isn't needed since my semen is fine. My testosterone is low though, and I've noticed swelling in my chest plus something hard in my left testicle. Getting married soon am I physically fit for married life? How's my erection and libido for sex? Could there be any issues like cancer in my testicles? I'm in Bengaluru and would like to consult one doctor for all these concerns.
Grade 3 varicocele requires surgery ,they include laparoscopic varicocelectomy,open surgical intervention by making a minor incision and ligating the effected veins and lastly percutaneous embolisation procedure.The gold standard treatment is called varicocelectomy procedure is advised to the patient.
