My left testicle hangs much lower than my right one and sometimes feels like it's burning. I've heard about bell clapper deformity causing testicular torsion and I'm worried because I also have bilateral grade 1 varicocele. Could this deformity be why my left testicle hangs differently? Do I need surgery for this or can it be managed with medications?

Lower testicle and mild varicocele can be normal, but persistent pain needs evaluation. Bell clapper deformity may need surgery if torsion risk is high.

I've been having swelling and stabbing pain on the lower left side of my trunk near my abdomen and hip. My doctor checked and said there's no kidney or urinary issue but still ordered an ultrasound. The scan showed normal kidneys and no fatty liver but found a UTI, urine retention, and 6mm gall bladder stones with fatty and calcium deposits. I'm worried will my doctor push for surgery or can this be managed with meds and lifestyle changes? What does Ayurveda suggest for avoiding surgery in this case?

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.
