Patient's question:
I am 32 years old this year. I had varicocele a while ago, and I took medicine to treat it, but it has appeared again recently. Please ask: What are the hazards of varicocele?Doctor's answer:
The common hazards of varicocele in men are:1. Impact on daily life: If not addressed promptly, it may spread to the perineum, groin, and other areas, affecting the patient's normal life.
2. Fertility issues: Varicocele can hinder the development of sperm, disrupt venous blood circulation, lower testicular temperature, increase sperm production, reduce sperm vitality, and ultimately lead to infertility.
3. Sexual dysfunction: Some men with varicocele may experience low libido, erectile dysfunction, and premature ejaculation if left untreated for a long time.
Attention needed: Avoid prolonged standing. It is recommended to rest more, eat less spicy and irritating foods, and pay attention to hygiene.
