Patient's question:
The hospital performed bilateral varicocele surgery over 4 years ago. The testicles, spermatic cord, and waist often experience pain, pain climate, and thickening of the spermatic cord. What is the reason? Please ask: What are the factors that cause varicocele?Doctor's answer:
If it is inflammation, oral anti-inflammatory drugs can be taken for symptomatic treatment. If the pain does not relieve or gradually improves, surgical treatment is feasible. Local cold compresses and physical therapy can be applied. Avoid prolonged standing or sitting, and limit alcohol consumption. Due to the inability to conduct a face-to-face examination, a comprehensive understanding of the condition is not possible.To further clarify the diagnosis, you should go to a private tertiary hospital for a comprehensive examination. Based on your symptoms and physical signs, the doctor will order clinical diagnostic tests (such as blood, urine, and stool tests, X-rays, ultrasound, etc.) to identify the cause and then provide targeted treatment. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
