Patient's question:
I have had varicocele for a while, and the symptoms have recently become more severe. I also feel pain in the groin area, and the testicles feel like there are worms coiled on them when touched. I've heard that this condition can affect fertility. I've been married for over a year, and I'm really worried. Could you please tell me how to treat varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the condition of the patient is likely due to frequent sexual activity during puberty, leading to varicocele. In such cases, it is necessary to have a thorough examination of the spermatic cord through color Doppler ultrasound at the hospital's surgical department. If the condition is not severe, using red clover and Poria water for fumigation and washing can help stabilize blood circulation and improve the condition. If the condition is more serious, surgical treatment will be required. Varicocele can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment and use medication appropriately. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope that male patients can recover quickly.
