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. I'm wondering if I might have varicocele. How is it treated? How is it treated? How is varicocele treated?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele can cause local heaviness, dull pain, and discomfort. For mild symptoms, a scrotal support belt can be used. For more severe symptoms accompanied by abnormal sperm, surgical treatment can be considered. Currently, minimally invasive surgery is commonly adopted to prevent prolonged standing or walking. In terms of diet, spicy and irritating foods should be avoided. Varicocele can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's treatment plan, appropriate medication, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper diet during treatment are essential. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
