How should I deal with varicocele?

Patient's question:

I'm really puzzled. A few weeks ago, I felt a lot of pain in my testicles, and after going to the hospital for a check-up, it was diagnosed as varicocele. I didn't do anything wrong, so how did I get this condition? And it's said to affect fertility, but I'm not even married yet. What should I do?
Question: What should I do if I have varicocele?

Doctor's answer:

Varicocele often recurs in young and middle-aged adults. For those without obvious symptoms, a scrotal support band can be used to slow down the progression of the condition. Surgical treatment should be considered for those with significant symptoms or abnormal sperm, especially for those with fertility requirements. Varicocele tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should seek professional and reputable medical diagnosis promptly and consider treatment based on thorough examination results. Proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should also be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
