I've been having this throbbing pain in my groin that starts from the lower right side of my abdomen and radiates down to my scrotum. It began with intense lower back pain on the right side, spreading to my thighs and then the groin sometimes it's so bad I can't stand straight. I had hernia surgery in the same spot when I was 6 could this be another hernia or something else?

Groin pain can sometimes happen due to medical emergencies like appendicitis, testicular torsion, ovarian torsion or a strangulated hernia (a hernia that's lost its blood supply). Seek emergency care if you have groin pain along with any of these symptoms: Nausea or vomiting.

View allI have bilateral grade 1 varicocele but my left testicle feels heavy and painful especially when lying down. I'm considering surgery but unsure whether microsurgical varicocelectomy or embolization would be better in terms of success rates and fewer complications. Which option tends to have better outcomes for cases like mine?
For a case of bilateral Grade 1 varicocele with pain and heaviness in the left testicle, microsurgical varicocelectomy is generally preferred over embolization due to its higher success rates and potentially fewer long-term complications.

My penis curves to the left and I'm a bit worried is this normal or could it cause problems? I'm 20 and male, and I'd like to know if there are any natural ways to straighten it without surgery. What can I do?
A mild curve in the penis, especially if it's present since puberty, is usually normal and not a cause for concern if it doesn't cause pain or interfere with sex. However, if the curve is new, worsening, or causing problems, it could be Peyronie's disease and should be evaluated by a urologist. Gentle stretching exercises or vacuum devices may help in mild cases, but avoid aggressive methods.

I'm dealing with kidney stones in both of my kidneys. There's a 4mm stone on the right and a 3mm one on the left. Can you guide me on how I should go about removing these stones?
-Small kidney stones like yours often pass naturally with adequate hydration. Drink at least 3-4 liters of water daily, include citrus juices (like lemon water) to help dissolve stones, and consult your doctor for pain management or medications if needed.
