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. Could it be varicocele? Seeking treatment at the hospital.Doctor's answer:
Varicocele in men can affect male fertility, and during prolonged standing or strenuous activity, it may cause a sense of heaviness, fullness, and pain, which requires timely surgical treatment. It is recommended that you follow up promptly to assess the severity of your condition and determine the appropriate treatment. Pay attention to maintaining hygiene of the penis, engage in appropriate activity, and avoid overexertion. Varicocele is prone to recurrence, and long-term medication may be necessary. For male patients, it is important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital, and treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, attention should be paid to restricting sexual activity and maintaining a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
