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

My recent USG showed an enlarged prostate at 75cc along with fatty liver and cholelithiasis. I might need surgery any idea about the cost and recommendations for a good hospital?
The USG findings of an enlarged prostate at 75cc, along with fatty liver and cholelithiasis (gallstones), indicate multiple health concerns. The enlarged prostate, specifically benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is common in older men and can cause urinary issues. Fatty liver, also known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is often linked to metabolic issues and can progress to more serious liver problems if not addressed. Cholelithiasis, or gallstones, can cause pain and digestive issues and may require medical intervention. It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and management plan for all three conditions

For a Grade 3 varicocele, microscopic varicocelectomy is generally considered superior to open surgery, offering potentially better results with fewer complications. It's considered the "gold standard" in many cases
