Patient's question:
When I was taking a shower, I noticed that one of my testicles is much larger than the other, and it seems to be lower on one side. When I touched it, I felt that the veins were very prominent, almost like earthworms coiled inside the testicle. Please ask: How can I determine if I have varicocele?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, after varicocele surgery, you have mild discomfort on the inner thigh. We are consulting the cause. Based on your condition, this is generally common due to postoperative soft tissue adhesion and poor blood circulation, which can lead to discomfort. Cold compress and massage can help alleviate the symptoms. Rest and avoid excessive exercise, prolonged sitting, or standing. Varicocele is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital immediately. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Also, maintain a proper diet and avoid sexual activity. In conclusion, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
