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. But recently, the pain has been getting worse, sometimes making it hard for me to sleep at night. It has seriously affected my normal life and work, and I am very troubled. Please ask: What is the best way to treat varicocele?Doctor's answer:
The main symptom of varicocele is the recurrence of a sense of heaviness and discomfort in the perineum, along with the recurrence of varicose veins of the spermatic cord, which can lead to infertility. If the varicocele is severe, surgical treatment is required. If you have varicocele, you should first go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound or a routine semen examination. If it affects the quality of sperm, surgical treatment is necessary, preferably a minimally invasive high ligation of the spermatic vein. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it is not treated in time, it can affect your health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life, paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
