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 seemed to be very prominent, like earthworms coiled inside the testicle. Please ask: What should be noted when treating varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Patients with varicocele should pay attention to avoiding strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor after surgery. Avoid standing for long periods, do not smoke, and do not drink beer. The diet should be light and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Pay attention to a balanced nutrition to effectively prevent recurrence. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication in a timely manner and avoid overexertion in daily life. Pay attention to personal hygiene. Wish you a speedy recovery.
