Patient's question:
I have had varicocele for many years. Actually, it hasn't caused much discomfort, and since I already have children, I haven't paid much attention to it. However, in recent times, the pain has been getting worse, sometimes even keeping me awake at night. It has seriously affected my normal life and work, and I am very troubled. Please ask: How should varicocele be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Weak vein walls, venous valve defects, and decreased pressure in superficial veins are the main causes of varicose veins. Weak vein walls, venous valve defects, and heredity are also factors. Prolonged standing, heavy physical labor, early pregnancy, chronic cough, and constipation can all lead to decreased superficial vein pressure. When the saphenous vein valves at the junction with the femoral vein are damaged or incompetent, blood flows backward, causing varicose veins! Surgery is the best method for treating varicose veins. For varicocele patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
