I'm considering the ED1000 shock wave treatment that my doctor mentioned to help with my condition, but I'm a bit worried about potential side effects. Can you tell me if there are any risks involved? Also, I'm trying to find hospitals in Bangalore where they perform this therapy, and it would be helpful to know the cost. Would appreciate your advice.

I've had a hydrocele in my left testis for the past 4 years and the size hasn't changed but for the last month there's been very mild pain. Doctors suggest surgery but I'd prefer not to go that route. Is there any effective homeopathy or ayurvedic treatment that can help with this condition

While homeopathy and Ayurveda offer alternative approaches, there's limited scientific evidence to support their efficacy in treating hydroceles definitively.
