How should varicocele be treated better?

Patient's question:

I have had varicocele for a while, and the symptoms have been getting worse recently. I also feel pain in the groin area, and the testicles feel like there are worms coiled on them when touched. I heard that this condition can affect fertility. I've been married for over a year and I'm really worried. Could you please advise on the best treatment for varicocele?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Patients with varicocele may experience a sense of heaviness and fullness in the scrotum when standing for long periods. Varicocele is one of the causes of male infertility.
Hello! Varicocele should be treated surgically. It is recommended to visit a regular hospital for follow-up and implement treatment under the guidance of a doctor, hoping this will be helpful to you. Varicocele can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medication should be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
