Patient's question:
Doctor, I have had testicular pain for a while. The examination said I have varicocele. So, how should I treat varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is caused by the expansion of the spermatic veins and pampiniform plexus, leading to impaired blood circulation. It can cause symptoms such as a heavy or swollen scrotum, discomfort, and may affect sperm quality. Varicocele can be treated through procedures such as high ligation of the spermatic veins or laparoscopic varicocelectomy. While varicocele can be relieved, the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential for patients to 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 that male patients can recover quickly!
