Asked for Male | 18 Years

I am an 18 year old male who is training to be a professional cyclist. I have had a varicocele in both testicles for a number of years now. I had it checked by doctors a few years ago, however it was during COVID so they didn't want to remove them and said there was no need. I was wondering if I should now look into getting them removed and if they could be having any impact on my athletic performance e.g limiting testosterone?

Answered by Dr. Neeta Verma

Varicoceles are dilated veins and can be surgically corrected if necessary. As a professional athlete it may be beneficial to discuss with your urologist whether varicocele surgery is appropriate for you and if it could improve your athletic performance.

I have urine track infection from last 7 years... I done many urine test... And doctor are saying... It's ok.. Nothing to worry

Female | 23

You need to go see a doctor and have your urinary tract infection treated. Even though it might seem like a trivial issue, chronic infections can cause more serious issues if they are left. A urologist who focuses on UTIs should be seen for the diagnosis and treatment of this condition.

You may have a urinary tract infection (UTI). UTIs typically present with symptoms such as frequent urination, itching in the urethra, and difficulty urinating. These bacteria require treatment through antibiotics like LeFloxin. Complete the full course of antibiotics to clear the infection. Your doctor might prescribe another medicine if the symptoms persist after the first round of treatment.

Hi I have been to many red bull drinks and now I have urinary infection and I don't know what to do I'm 63yrs old and I have no insurance

Male | 63

Drinking too much Re­d Bull irritates your bladder, letting ge­rms cause infections easie­r. Symptoms are painful urination, frequent urge­ to pee, and cloudy urine. To re­cover, hydrate plenty, avoid caffe­ine, take pain medication from store­s. If no improvement, visit a community health clinic for care­.

I consumed alchohal ,it's been 2 days since my kidney stone surgery. Now I am feeling very low and dizziness what to do

Male | 22

It's essential to stop drinking immediately if you're feeling dizziness and low..Alcohol can have adverse effects on your recovery and overall health, especially after surgery. Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, rest, and avoid alcohol and other substances that may interfere with healing.

I have sexuality problems since childhood as a boy. My testes and penis are way smaller compared to my colleagues. I am weaker and not physically fit as a man. I usually like female domination, I have had erectal problems since I became sexually active, I lose erection or ejaculate quickly. I don’t feel confident now going close to women .My research shows I might have low testosterone from birth?

Male | 33

It is vital to have a conversation with the urologist or the endocrinologist if you experience doubts related to your sexual development and functioning. They may recommend tests which can show you if you have a low testosterone or some medical conditions. It is not recommended to self-diagnose and self-treat as this sometimes leads to additional complications.
