Patient's question:
I am 35 years old, male. During the suture removal after varicocele surgery, only the left side of the incision had a bit of infection, and later the wound swelled up. Please ask what should be done if the wound swells up after varicocele surgery?Doctor's answer:
After varicocele surgery, the dilated veins need time to return to normal size. One side of the wound may have some scar fibrosis, and the testicles are naturally asymmetrical in position. If you're not (not at ease), you can have an ultrasound. After some time, you can have a routine semen analysis and compare it with the pre-surgery check-up to see the surgical effect. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients need to go to a formal, top-tier hospital for systematic and standardized examinations based on their condition to receive targeted treatment and alleviate symptoms as soon as possible.
