Varicocele is a soft, tortuous or worm-like dilated vein cluster above the testicle. Some patients may experience more pronounced symptoms, such as a sensation of scrotal heaviness or discomfort with swelling, accompanied by pain in the perineum, lower abdomen, or waist. Symptoms become more noticeable after prolonged standing or strenuous activity, but they may subside after resting in a supine position. Varicocele can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and recurrence is common after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
