I have a grade 2 varicocele but my semen report is normal can it heal on its own? Does icing actually help with the discomfort? If I go for surgery, will it affect my penile function in any way?

Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I'm experiencing some pain in my right testicle along with a bit of swelling and tenderness.

Can you please give me some advice on what this might be?
