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 is varicocele treated?Doctor's answer:
Based on your situation, this is primarily caused by varicocele. It has now interfered with sperm quality, so it is recommended to undergo minimally invasive surgery for treatment. If it is severe, this can easily affect future fertility. In daily life, it is important to pay attention to appropriate exercise, as varicocele tends to recur. Long-term medication is usually required. For male patients, it is essential to seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations. Additionally, it is important to moderate sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
