View allI noticed a lump in my left testicle and after looking it up online I think it might be varicocele It doesn't hurt but feels uncomfortable Do I really need surgery for this and if so how long can I wait before getting it treated Im 22 and a bit worried about what to do next
Any time you find a lump in your testicle or scrotum, you should have it checked by your doctor as soon as possible. However, if the lump you're feeling is in fact a varicocele, it likely won't cause pain. While varicocele pain is not common, it can occur, especially as the varicocele becomes larger.

I'm feeling a bit concerned because I recently had a fever and cold, and even after recovering, I had some lingering symptoms like a headache and weakness. My blood test came back normal, but I'm puzzled about my urine test results. It shows that my pus cell count is 10-15 cellsHPF and epithelial cells are 2-3 cellsHPF, which seems higher than normal. All my other results are within the average range. Is this something I should be worried about? What steps should I take next? I've attached a screenshot of my test results for reference.
Based on your urine test results showing an elevated pus cell count, it indicates the presence of inflammation or infection in your urinary tract. To address this issue, you can take a course of antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin. Additionally, it is important to increase your fluid intake to help flush out the infection. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been having some recurring issues after sexual activity, where I notice dryness and tears on my penis. There are also these small red dots on the head of my penis, but they don't seem too noticeable. When I searched online, it suggested it might be related to a yeast or fungal infection. I'm not really sure what to make of it, though. Could you give me some advice or thoughts on what might be going on?
Your symptoms, such as recurring dryness, tears, and small red dots on the penis head, could be indicative of several conditions, including: 1. Yeast or fungal infections: As you've suspected, Candida or other fungal infections can cause these symptoms. 2. Balanitis: An inflammation of the glans penis, often caused by poor hygiene, fungal or bacterial infections, or allergies.To determine the cause and receive proper treatment, consult a healthcare professional, such as a urologist or a dermatologist. They can: 1. Conduct a physical examination. 2. Take a thorough medical history. 3. Perform diagnostic tests (e.g., swabs, blood tests). 4. Provide personalized guidance and treatment.
