Patient's question:
I just returned from the military this year. It's possible that I got varicocele from standing guard during my service. My family has introduced me to a partner and I want to get married and have children as soon as possible. However, my condition hasn't been fully treated yet, and I'm very troubled. Please ask: How should varicocele be treated?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of varicocele are numerous, and men should pay attention. In the early stages, the symptoms are not obvious and are not easily noticed. The first symptom is a feeling of heaviness and pain in the scrotum and testicles. The heaviness and pain caused by varicocele are less uncomfortable when lying down but more pronounced when walking or standing.Secondly, the feeling of heaviness or discomfort in the scrotum caused by varicocele can extend to the groin, lower abdomen, and waist. In severe varicocele, dilated veins can also be seen on the surface of the scrotum.
Varicocele is also one of the important reasons for male infertility, and timely treatment is key. The treatment of varicocele, for mild cases, can be conservative.
