Patient's question:
I am really suffering. I have varicocele for many years, and I have tried many methods but couldn't control it. Now I feel that my testicles are starting to atrophy, and the pain is getting more and more unbearable. If this continues, my later life will be ruined. It's really too painful. Please ask: What should be noted when treating varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Patients with varicocele should pay attention to the following in daily life:1. Avoid prolonged standing. Standing for long periods increases abdominal pressure, which can easily lead to recurrence of varicocele. Therefore, patients should regularly engage in leg lifting and lowering exercises. If possible, it is better to take short walks.
2. Pay attention to a light diet, avoiding stimulating foods, and focus on digestible and nutritious foods. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and it is best to avoid alcohol and smoking. Foods rich in vitamin E, such as corn oil, peanut oil, sesame oil, lettuce leaves, and orange peels, can be consumed regularly, which may help in preventing and recovering from varicocele.
3. Pay attention to adjusting emotions and maintaining a cheerful mood. Follow a balanced approach to work and rest.
