I'm being treated for Tuberculosis Epididymitis, but I haven't had a clinical diagnosis. The treatment was given based on clinical signs. I'm wondering, once the treatment is over, should a TB blood test come back negative?

I found out I have an epididymal cyst from an ultrasound and allopathic doctors are recommending surgery but I'm curious if there are any effective ayurvedic or homeopathic treatments instead

While surgery is the standard treatment for epididymal cysts, Ayurveda and homeopathy offer alternative approaches. Ayurveda focuses on addressing the root causes of the cyst, potentially using herbal remedies and lifestyle adjustments. Homeopathy considers individual symptoms and constitution, potentially using specific remedies to shrink the cyst. However, it's important to consult with qualified practitioners and consider the potential benefits and limitations of each approach

I recently went to a urologist who told me my testicles are undescended and still in my lower abdomen based on an ultrasound scan. I'm 26 and worried it might be too late to fix this. Can you recommend a good doctor or hospital in Bangalore for this? Also, any idea what the surgery might cost roughly?

Surgery is the best option, we cant do anything much with medication, so go for surgery.
