I'm a bit worried about my situation. When my penis is flaccid, I can easily pull the foreskin back. Is this normal? Should I be keeping it rolled back all the time, or is there a reason to be concerned?

Its normal for the foreskin to be easily pulled back when the penis is flaccid, as long as it doesnt cause discomfort or pain. It's not necessary to keep the foreskin rolled back all the time unless advised by a healthcare provider, as it may lead to irritation or other issues. Regular hygiene is important to prevent infections.

What are the non-surgical treatment options for grade 23 varicocele and are there any medicines that can actually cure it without needing surgery

For a Grade 2 or 3 varicocele, non-surgical options like embolization (blocking the affected veins) and lifestyle changes are available, but no medications can cure it. Embolization is often preferred for its minimally invasive nature and faster recovery. Lifestyle changes, such as wearing supportive underwear, can help manage symptoms

I've been having this weird ticklish sensation at the bottom of my vagina right when I'm finishing up peeing, and I've noticed my pee's been looking translucent lately. I'm also having trouble holding it inlike, when I have to go, I really have to go, even waking up from sleep. What's going on with me?

The symptoms you're describing, including the ticklish sensation, translucent urine, frequent urination, and nocturia (waking up to pee), could be indicative of a urinary tract infection (UTI), get urine rm and cs done
