I'm noticing some swelling veins in my penis and I'm wondering if this might cause any problems down the line. I'm feeling a bit of discomfort in my penis and left leg because of this. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

I'm a bit worried about some test results I got. It says I have two non-obstructing calculus in my right kidney, one measuring 3.5mm and another 4.0mm, located in the interpole and lower pole calyx. The left kidney also has two non-obstructing calculus, measuring 3.6mm and 4.4mm in the same areas. Should I be concerned about these? Are there any symptoms I should watch out for or lifestyle changes I need to make?

You have multiple small kidney stones (calculus) in both kidneys, but they are not currently obstructing the flow of urine. Here's a summary: _Right Kidney:_ - 2 small stones (3.5mm and 4.0mm) in the interpolar and lower pole calyx _Left Kidney:_ - 2 small stones (3.6mm and 4.4mm) in the interpolar and lower pole calyx _Recommendations:_ 1. _Drink plenty of water_: Aim for at least 8-10 glasses of water per day to help flush out the stones. 2. _Dietary changes_: Consider reducing your intake of animal proteins, sodium, and oxalate-rich foods (e.g., spinach, beets, rhubarb). 3. _Monitoring_: Schedule regular follow-up appointments with your doctor to monitor the stones' size and position. 4. _Pain management_: If you experience any pain or discomfort, consult your doctor for guidance on pain management. _When to Seek Medical Attention:_ 1. _Severe pain_: If you experience severe pain or discomfort. 2. _Blood in urine_: If you notice blood in your urine. 3. _Fever_: If you have a fever over 101.5F (38.6C). 4. _Vomiting_: If you experience persistent vomiting.

I've had varicocele in my left testicle for the past 7 years and it's been causing me pain. I'm unmarried and wondering if this can be treated with medication or if I'll need surgery. What are my options?

A varicocelectomy is a surgical procedure that treats severe varicoceles that are painful or affect your fertility. A surgeon who specializes in conditions that affect your urinary system and reproductive system will cut your affected veins and seal off the ends.

I've been diagnosed with a very small reducible hernia and bilateral hydrocele. Should I consider surgery for this or are there other treatment options? I'm a bit worried about whether this needs immediate attention or if I can manage it without an operation. What would you recommend?

Hydroceles can call for surgery if they cause symptoms, become large or continue to show changes in size by about a year of age. If the hydrocele is "non-communicating," meaning there is no related indirect inguinal hernia, the hydrocele sac is taken out, often through an incision in the scrotum.
