Patient's question:
Director, I have been with our county hospital for more than 4 years after bilateral varicocele surgery. The testicles, spermatic cord, and waist often hurt. The pain is affected by the climate, the spermatic cord has thickened, what is going on? When I went for a re-examination, they said there was nothing wrong.Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, a comprehensive analysis is conducted; the pain may be caused by nerve trauma during surgery, referred pain, or adhesions. Additionally, there may be possibilities of conditions such as varicocele or chronic orchitis. If the pain is due to inflammation, oral anti-inflammatory medications can be taken for symptomatic relief. If the pain does not subside or gradually worsens, surgery may be a viable option. Local cold compresses and physical therapy can also be applied. In the meantime, avoid prolonged standing or sitting, and limit alcohol consumption.Since I cannot examine you in person, a full understanding of your condition is limited. To further clarify the diagnosis, you should visit a private tertiary hospital for a thorough and detailed examination. Based on your symptoms and physical examination, the doctor will recommend clinical diagnostic tests to identify the underlying cause and provide targeted treatment.
