I'm dealing with a phimosis issue that I've had since birth. I'm trying to figure out the best way to handle this. Should I consider steroids or is surgery the better option? I'm based in Bangalore, so any local recommendations would be great too. What would you suggest?

Elevated SGOT (120) and SGPT (222) levels indicate liver stress, likely exacerbated by alcohol consumption.

To reduce liver enzyme levels:

Abstain from alcohol completely. Consider medications like:

Silymarin (Livercare) to support liver health. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) to reduce liver inflammation.

Consult a gastroenterologist or hepatologist for personalized guidance and monitoring.

My brother has grade II varicocele in his left testis and deals with mild to severe pain daily The urologist said surgery is only needed if the testis size reduces but can we consider surgery now just for pain relief Are there other ways to manage the pain without surgery

While surgery (varicocelectomy or embolization) can be considered for pain relief in a grade II varicocele, especially if it's severe and unresponsive to other treatments, it's not always the first choice. Other conservative methods like scrotal support, pain medication, and lifestyle adjustments can be tried first. If pain persists and is significantly impacting quality of life, surgery might be recommended.

I'm worried about my husband. He masturbates about once a week, but the next day he feels completely wiped out. He's dealing with depression, body aches, and headaches, and just has no energy to do anything. Is this something to be concerned about, and how can we deal with it? Interestingly, he feels fine after intercourse. What could be causing this, and what can we do to sort it out?

It is not uncommon for some individuals to experience physical and emotional symptoms after masturbation, especially if it is accompanied by feelings of guilt or shame. To help alleviate these symptoms, your husband can try taking a pain reliever such as acetaminophen for body pains and headache. Additionally, he can consider taking a supplement like vitamin B complex to help with energy levels and mood. For a more permanent solution, it may be helpful for your husband to explore the underlying reasons for his feelings of exhaustion and depression. Engaging in regular exercise, maintaining a healthy diet, getting enough sleep, and managing stress can also contribute to overall well-being. If these symptoms persist or worsen, it is important for him to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance.
