I'm worried because my penis has suddenly gotten swollen, and I dont exactly know why. I was traveling on a bus last night, and this morning I noticed it was a bit swollen. Now, it seems to have gotten worse. There's been no sexual activity or anything else that could explain it. Could something have bitten me, and what should I do about it? Can you help me out with some advice?

I'm experiencing this dragging sensation on the left side of my testicle and the color Doppler test showed I have a grade IV extra testicular varicocele on that side. My doctor mentioned surgery as the only solution, but I'm wondering if there might be any other treatments available. Could you offer some advice or alternatives?

While surgery is often recommended for high-grade varicoceles like Grade IV, alternative treatments may include embolization, a minimally invasive procedure to block blood flow to the varicocele, or sclerotherapy, injecting a solution to shrink the varicocele; however, consult your doctor or a urologist to discuss these options and determine the best course of treatment for your specific case.

I'm just curious about how often my wife and I can have sex in a month without causing any negative effects on our bodies now or in the future. I want to make sure we're both staying healthy, so how frequently is considered safe?

Having a healthy sexual relationship with your partner is important for overall well-being. There is no specific number of times that is considered ideal for sexual activity in a month as it varies for each couple. It is important to listen to your body and communicate openly with your partner to ensure that both of you are comfortable and enjoying the intimacy. As long as both partners are consenting and comfortable, there is no set limit on how many times you can engage in sexual activity in a month.
