I'm a bit worried about my left testicle because it hangs much lower than the right one and there's a burning sensation. I've read about bell clapper deformity and how it might lead to testicular torsion. Also, I've been diagnosed with bilateral grade 1 varicocele. I'm wondering if I might need surgery for this or if it can be managed with medicine. Could you help clarify this for me?

View allI'm experiencing some discomfort and it's been worrying me. It started with pain in my lower abdomen, and after a while, I began feeling pain in my penis and the nearby pelvic area. I've had IBS for quite some time, and I'm wondering if this penile pain could be related to my lower abdomen issues and IBS. Does that make sense? Could they be connected?
Recurrent vaginal yeast infections can be challenging to manage. Since you've already taken two doses of fluconazole (FAS 3-kit) and still experience recurring infections, it's essential to consider other factors contributing to the recurrence. *Possible Reasons for Recurrence* 1. *Hormonal changes*: Your periods might be triggering the recurrence due to hormonal fluctuations. 2. *Incomplete treatment*: The initial treatment might not have fully cleared the infection. 3. *Underlying medical conditions*: Certain conditions, such as diabetes, can increase the risk of recurrent yeast infections. 4. *Antibiotic use*: Recent antibiotic use can disrupt the natural balance of vaginal flora, leading to yeast overgrowth. *Next Steps* 1. *Consult your gynecologist again*: Discuss your recurring symptoms and ask about further treatment options. 2. *Consider alternative treatments*: Your doctor might recommend alternative antifungal medications, such as clotrimazole or miconazole, or a longer treatment course. 3. *Maintain good hygiene and lifestyle habits*: Continue to follow your doctor's advice on hygiene, fluid intake, and dietary changes. 4. *Probiotics and dietary supplements*: Certain probiotics and dietary supplements, such as lactobacillus acidophilus, may help maintain a healthy vaginal flora. *Fluconazole Use* While you can take another dose of fluconazole, it's essential to consult your doctor first. They will assess your situation and determine the best course of action.

I'm dealing with tight foreskin where I can pull it back normally when soft, but during an erection it's really painful and tight around the head almost like a burning sensation. I'm not sure if my frenulum is tight too. Is there any way to fix this without surgery?
It sounds like you may have phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract fully and comfortably. This can cause pain and discomfort during erections, potentially from a tight frenulum as well. Non-surgical treatments can help, including topical steroid creams and gentle stretching exercises

I have type 2 partial retraction where I can pull the foreskin back a bit but it won't go past the head of my penis and I also have a tight frenulum is there any way to fix this without getting circumcision
Topical steroid creams and frenulum-stretching techniques may help. Circumcision is only needed if it interferes with function or causes tears.
