I've just been told I have a small prostatic cyst that's about 6mm. Should I be worried about this? What's the typical treatment for something like this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A 6mm prostatic cyst is generally considered small and may not be a cause for concern, as 5-8% of men have small prostatic cysts. However, it's essential to monitor it, as larger cysts can cause complications like urinary tract infections, hematuria, and voiding dysfunction.
Treatment options vary depending on symptoms and cyst size. Small, asymptomatic cysts may not require treatment, while larger or symptomatic cysts may need surgical excision, transurethral cyst catheterization, or other non-surgical interventions.

View allI've been having this dragging sensation and pain on the left side of my scrotum which my doctor says is varicocele and recommended surgery but I'm not sure if it's really necessary. Can varicocele heal on its own or are there other treatment options before considering surgery? The discomfort comes and goes but it's really bothering me during physical activity
While it's possible for a varicocele to improve or disappear on its own, particularly in adolescents, it's not a guarantee. In many cases, varicoceles persist and may even worsen over time. Your doctor's recommendation for surgery is likely based on your specific symptoms and how they're impacting your quality of life, especially during physical activity. There are other options to consider before surgery, but it's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and guidance.

I've noticed something a bit concerning recently. There have been big ants getting attracted to my urine for the past few days. I'm not sure if this is connected, but I've been under a lot of stress and have a huge workload. I've also been experiencing wet dreams occasionally. Is there any chance these things might be related?
It's possible that the ants are attracted to your urine due to the sugar content, which can sometimes be a sign of high blood sugar or diabetes. Stress can also affect your body in various ways, including increasing your stress levels and potentially influencing hormonal changes that lead to wet dreams. It would be good to consult a doctor to address both concerns, especially if you're experiencing any other symptoms.
