Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing some pain in the groin area or lower back. The symptoms worsen after fatigue, prolonged standing, or walking. Could you please tell me about varicocele and how it is treated? Varicocele and how it is treated? Varicocele and how it is 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 may be necessary, with minimally invasive surgery being the current preferred approach. Avoid prolonged standing or walking. Varicocele can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medication should be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
