Patient's question:
I've been feeling lower abdominal pain and testicular pain this week, and I also feel very bloated. The symptoms get worse after sitting or standing for a long time. Since it's a private part, I feel embarrassed to go to the hospital. I think it might be varicocele. Could you please tell me what matters should be noted before varicocele surgery?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, after varicocele surgery, you have mild discomfort on the inner thigh. We are conducting a consultation to determine 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. For varicocele patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. We wish you a speedy recovery.
