I've been struggling with a urine infection for about 1.5 months now, and I've been diagnosed with klebsiella oxytoca in my urine. It's really uncomfortable because I have this constant burning sensation. What could be causing this, and how can I finally get some relief?

View allI've been having mild but constant pain and heaviness in my left testicle and was recently diagnosed with Grade 1 Varicocele. Do I need surgery for this or are there other options to manage it?
For Grade 1 varicocele, which is a mild form with small, dilated veins, surgery is often not necessary unless it's causing significant pain or fertility issues. In most cases, non-surgical management like ice packs, pain medication, and supportive underwear can help manage symptoms. If pain persists, or if fertility is affected, surgery (varicocelectomy) might be recommended

I had epididymal cyst surgery on both testicles before and now the scan shows bilateral varicocele with pain. My scrotum sometimes shrinks in size and I can feel heat and swollen veins inside. What could be causing this and what should I do?
Yes, Sx is better option but still for final please consult surgeon for full P/E.

I've been taking steroids as a professional bodybuilder, but lately I noticed some changes in my left testicle it feels like there are extra veins or something. I looked it up and think it might be testicular varicocele, but I'm not sure. Could the steroids be causing this? Doctors always warn against steroids, but it's part of my job, so I can't stop. I know the risks, but this issue has me worried. Does varicocele need surgery, or can it heal on its own?
Get an Ultrasound and Doppler study of scrotum. Steroid has nothing to do with varicocele but it is possible due to heavy weight lifting. Please clarify what steroid you are taking. If corticosteroid like dexona, betnesol stop it gradually over many months. If testosterone or other anabolic steroid you can maintain these provided considering risk of infertility.
