What are the contraindications for treating varicocele?

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, recently 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: What are the contraindications for treating varicocele?

Doctor's answer:

Weak vein walls, venous valve defects, and decreased pressure in superficial veins are the main causes of varicose veins. Weak vein walls, venous valve defects, and heredity are also factors. Prolonged standing, heavy physical labor, early pregnancy, chronic cough, and constipation can all lead to decreased superficial vein pressure. When the saphenous vein valves at the connection point with the femoral vein are damaged or incompetent, blood flows backward, causing varicose veins! Surgery is the best method for treating varicose veins. Varicocele can be cured, but the treatment process is usually slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, patients must actively cooperate with their doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
