I'm dealing with epididymitis that I found out about a month ago. I started antibiotics back then and the swelling went down a bit. Then my doctor switched me to a milder antibiotic, but after a week, the swelling didn't go away and actually got worse, turning into a hydrocele. So my doctor put me back on the old antibiotics. I've got a bunch of questions on my mind. Is epididymitis something that can actually be cured? And if so, how long should I expect it to take? What kind of care should I be taking, like should I change my diet or exercise routine? Is jogging, running, or hitting the gym something I can do? Are there specific foods or activities I need to steer clear of? Could this condition affect my sexual or married life? What precautions should I be taking? How about personal care, any specific things I need to focus on? Also, my doctor prescribed tablets that cost 100 Rs each; do antibiotics really cost that much?

I've been noticing extra skin around my penis and sometimes there's a white substance forming around it. Is this something that might need surgery to fix or is there another way to handle it? I'm a bit worried about what's going on

I have a 1.2x1.1 cm simple cortical cyst in the upper pole of my right kidney. The urologist prescribed norfloxacin 400mg twice daily for 5 days and mentioned surgery if it doesn't improve. I'm 64 and retired without a pension should I be worried about needing surgery or are there other options I can explore first
