I've had a hydrocele in my right testicle since 2008 and got surgery in 2015, but the size still isn't normal and it hurts when I touch it. Why hasn't it gone back to normal and what could be causing the pain even after surgery?

It's understandable to be concerned about the persistence of your hydrocele and the pain you're experiencing. While hydrocele surgery, or hydrocelectomy, is usually successful, there are instances where the hydrocele may not completely resolve or cause post-surgical pain

View allI've been dealing with erectile dysfunction for the past 4 years and I'm not sure what to do next. What tests should I get to figure out the cause? Also, I'm confused about treatment options would allopathic medicine, ayurvedic therapy, or surgery work better for my situation?
For erectile dysfunction, tests like testosterone levels, penile Doppler, and blood sugar are helpful. Allopathic treatments like PDE5 inhibitors are most effective; Ayurveda may support, but surgery is rare and used only in severe cases.

I've done a semen culture, and they found klebsiella pneumoniae ssp pneumoniae. My doctor is saying I should take gentamicin 80mg, but I've read online about a bunch of side effects. I'm worried and not sure if I should go ahead with this injection. Can you give me some advice?
Gentamicin is a suitable treatment option for Klebsiella pneumoniae infections, considering its broad-spectrum antibiotic properties.

I'm having some white discharge from my penis every morning and I'm really worried. There's no pain, but I'm not sure what's going on. Can you suggest any medication to help with this?
The elevated ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) levels indicate inflammation in the body. Joint pains, leg pains, and finger pains suggest an inflammatory condition, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) or Osteoarthritis (OA). Normal sugar test results rule out diabetes as a cause for the symptoms. Consult a Rheumatologist for further evaluation and diagnosis. They may recommend additional tests, such as CRP, RF, and ANA, to determine the underlying cause. Treatment will depend on the diagnosis, but may include anti-inflammatory medications, pain management, and lifestyle modifications.
