Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have been feeling unwell recently, experiencing pain in my scrotum. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor told me I have varicocele. What are the early symptoms of varicocele?Doctor's answer:
General varicocele may recur with discomfort such as lower abdominal or scrotal swelling and pain. It is not known if similar symptoms exist currently. If similar symptoms occur, it is recommended to follow up at the general surgery outpatient clinic and undergo MRI for further diagnosis. Varicocele can be stable, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medication should be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, it is advisable to maintain good lifestyle habits and a proper diet during treatment. We hope that male patients can recover quickly!
