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 can varicocele be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
General varicocele may recur after surgery, leading to the reappearance of symptoms. Common clinical diagnostic reasons include heavy physical activity, strenuous exercise, prolonged standing or sitting, and other factors. Regular follow-up examinations at the hospital are necessary to monitor the condition. The current extent of recovery depends on periodic follow-up examinations, including Doppler ultrasound of the veins. Pay attention to personal daily habits to prevent further deterioration of the condition. If symptoms are severe, further surgery may be necessary. Varicocele can be relieved, but the treatment process is generally slow, and recurrence is common after treatment. Therefore, medication should be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
