Patient's question:
I am 28 years old, and I feel pain in my lower abdomen and testicles. I also feel very bloated. The symptoms worsen after sitting or standing for a long time. Please ask: If it is diagnosed as varicocele, how is it treated?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele primarily affects the function of the testes. Varicocele can cause the temperature of the testes to become too high, increasing sperm mortality and affecting sperm quantity, thereby impacting the patient's fertility. In severe cases, it can affect sexual function, consequently affecting sexual life. Therefore, surgical treatment is required. We generally recommend surgical treatment, but before the surgery, we will inform the patient that it cannot completely guarantee the effectiveness of the treatment after surgery.
