Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing some pain in the groin area or lower back. The symptoms worsen after exertion, prolonged standing, or walking. What medication is best for treating varicocele? How is varicocele treated?Doctor's answer:
For varicocele, surgical treatment is the best option. The high ligation of the internal spermatic vein through the inguinal canal is a commonly used treatment method in general hospitals. Similar to the inguinal hernia incision, the spermatic cord is exposed, and the main trunk and branches of the internal spermatic vein are identified and ligated. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
