What are the postoperative precautions for varicocele surgery?

Patient's question:

Male, 48 years old, has been running to and from the hospital many times, but the effect is always not obvious, and the condition has been recurring. Please ask: What are the postoperative precautions for varicocele surgery?

Doctor's answer:

After varicose vein surgery, the precautions we need to pay attention to are actually quite similar to finding the cause of varicose veins and prevention efforts.
First and foremost after the surgery, we need to emphasize compression therapy. This involves wearing compression stockings for at least two weeks, and we recommend wearing them for two months to maintain normal pressure gradients in the legs and promote blood flow.
Secondly, we should avoid prolonged standing or sitting. Appropriate exercise is beneficial, such as walking, running, etc., but long-term standing or sitting should be avoided.
