Question

I've had a left side varicocele for about a year now and need microsurgery but most doctors in Maharashtra are suggesting open surgery instead. Do they use any magnification during open surgery or is microsurgery the better option here? Also, can you recommend specialists in Maharashtra who perform microsurgery for varicocele?

Microsurgical varicocelectomy, which uses magnification, is generally considered the preferred option for varicocele treatment due to its lower complication rates and higher success rates in preserving testicular function and fertility compared to open surgery. While open surgery may involve some magnification (loupes), it doesn't offer the same level of precision and visualization as a microscope used in microsurgery

I recently got married and whenever I try to have sex with my wife, the skin on my penis hurts because it hasn't separated properly. I don't want to remove all the skin, just the top part that's attached to the penis. What would be the cost of that? What should I do, and if there's surgery required, how much would it cost?

Question

I'm thinking about using lignocaine jelly because I've heard it can help reduce the sensitivity of the glans penis, but I'm wondering how this might affect the process of getting an erection. I'm planning to apply it, but I'm a bit confused about how it all works together. Could you explain how lignocaine might impact erection and whether it's safe to use for this purpose?
