A PSA level of 100 ng/ml and the symptoms you're describing (painful urination and slow flow) are very concerning and should be evaluated urgently. It's crucial to seek medical attention promptly to determine the cause and appropriate treatment plan. While not necessarily life-threatening immediately, the symptoms and PSA level suggest a need for a urologist's evaluation

I'm curious about recovery after my varicocele and hydrocele surgery done on January 3rd. When is it safe to get back to normal sexual activities like having sex or masturbating? I'm a bit worried about doing anything too soon.

You can typically resume normal sexual activities, including sex or masturbation, about **46 weeks** after varicocele and hydrocele surgery, once you've fully healed. However, it's best to consult your doctor for personalized advice, as recovery time can vary.
