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

I'm noticing that my left testis goes up when I'm pooping and it feels kind of different during that time. Sometimes I even see sperm in the toilet. Is there something I should be worried about?

I've been struggling with difficulty urinating for the past year I have to push hard to pee and my stream is weak. The cystoscopy showed only a high bladder neck issue, with normal prostate and urethra, but I constantly feel tightness there. My urine smells bad even though UTI tests are negative, and my post-void residue is 46ml. My doctor prescribed Alfoo tablets for life is that safe long-term? Could it harm my prostate or increase cancer risk? Are there any permanent non-surgical treatments for this?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

I've been diagnosed with mild right-sided hydronephrosis and a 3.4x2.7 mm left kidney stone with 150 HU. There's also mild right-sided perinephric fat stranding and peripelvic fluid, plus delayed contrast excretion on the right side. My right ureter is dilated with a 400 HU, 53 mm stone at the vesicoureteric junction. Is this something that can be treated without surgery, or is surgery the only option? Really worried and need advice fast.
