Patient's question:
I was 20 years old when I discovered that I might have erectile dysfunction while dating my first girlfriend. Over the past 26 years, I have tried many methods, but I couldn't regain normal function. I was about to give up, but my parents kept urging me to get married and have children. I feel very guilty towards my parents and still want to try treatment again. Please ask: Is it erectile dysfunction if the penis cannot become erect after hydrocele surgery?Doctor's answer:
Generally, hydrocele surgery will never cause the penis to be unable to erect, because surgery in this area will never damage the penis's corpus cavernosum, nerves, or blood flow. If these three are not damaged, it will never cause the child's erectile dysfunction. Because there needs to be a thorough recovery period after the surgery, it is recommended that you carefully observe for a week. For patients with erectile dysfunction, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
