I've had a dull pain in my left testis for quite a while now. My USG scrotum showed a Grade III varicocele I've attached the report. What non-surgical treatments would you recommend for this? I'm a bit worried about the long-term effects if left untreated.

For a Grade III varicocele causing pain, initial non-surgical treatments focus on managing pain and discomfort. These include over-the-counter pain relievers, scrotal support with jock straps or snug underwear, and ice packs to reduce swelling. While these may offer temporary relief, Grade III varicoceles are often more severe and may require further intervention if pain persists or fertility is a concern

I'm having some trouble with my foreskin when my penis is erect. The head is fully visible, but the foreskin seems a bit attached to the backside of the head and won't fully retract down the shaft. It's making me a little concerned. What should I do about this?

Thats normal for everyone thats called frenulum of foreskin ,unless its creating any problem ,no need to worry.

I'm really concerned about how to control pre-cum. It happens whenever I even think about anything sexual, and it's becoming a bit frustrating. I just want to understand if there's a way to prevent it or reduce the occurrence because it really bothers me. Any advice on how to deal with this?

It's normal for pre-ejaculate (pre-cum) to be released as a response to sexual thoughts or stimulation. To manage it, practicing techniques like mindfulness, relaxation, and focusing on controlling arousal through deep breathing or distraction can help. If this continues to cause concern, consulting with a doctor or therapist may offer additional strategies.
