I've had bilateral varicocele for the past 2 years and have been feeling dull pain for the last 10 days. I'm taking Venixmin 900 mg and rutoheal but there's no relief. The surgeon said it's mild and doesn't need treatment, but the pain bothers me. I'm in my 4th year of MBBS and worried about infertility risks. If the pain goes away, do I still need any treatment? What's the best surgery option to prevent recurrence

I'm really worried because I've noticed the hole in my penis seems to be getting larger, and I think it might be because Ive been masturbating a lot. Is there anything I can do to get it back to its original size?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition known as urethral meatal stenosis, where the opening of the urethra becomes enlarged. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment. In some cases, a topical steroid cream may be prescribed to help reduce the size of the opening. Additionally, if the enlargement is causing any discomfort or issues with urination, a surgical procedure called meatoplasty may be recommended to repair the opening of the urethra.

I've been experiencing something strange and I'd love some advice. Every time I drink water, I feel the need to pee quite soon after, like every 15 to 20 minutes. Its almost like I have to force it at the end to feel like I'm done. Plus, there's this dull pain in my lower right abdomen that sometimes radiates to my penis. It's uncomfortable, but after a while, it does go away. Also, I've noticed a feeling of swelling inside my stomach on the right lower side. Any idea what could be causing this?

Pelvic pain can radiate to the penis and surrounding areas. _Possible Connections_ 1. _Referred pain_: Pain from the lower abdomen (possibly related to IBS) can refer to the penis and pelvic area. 2. _Pelvic floor muscle tension_: IBS can lead to pelvic floor muscle tension, which may cause pain in the penis and surrounding areas. 3. _Neurological overlap_: The nerves that transmit pain signals from the abdomen and pelvis can overlap, causing pain to radiate to the penis. _Other Possible Causes_ 1. _Prostatitis_: Inflammation of the prostate gland can cause pain in the penis, pelvic area, and lower abdomen. 2. _Urethritis_: Inflammation of the urethra can cause pain while urinating, which may radiate to the penis and pelvic area. 3. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Tightness or strain in the pelvic floor muscles, lower back, or abdominal muscles can cause referred pain to the penis. _What to Do_ 1. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a urologist to discuss your symptoms and determine the underlying cause. 2. _Manage IBS symptoms_: Continue to manage your IBS symptoms through diet, stress management, and medication (if prescribed). 3. _Pelvic floor physical therapy_: Consider consulting a pelvic floor physical therapist to help manage pelvic floor muscle tension and alleviate pain.
