Patient's question:
When I was taking a shower, I noticed that one of my testicles is much larger than the other, and it seems to be lower on one side. When I touched it, I felt that the veins were very prominent, almost like earthworms coiled inside the testicle. Please ask: Do I need treatment for varicocele?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is important to pay attention to appropriate exercise on a daily basis and avoid sitting for long periods. Be mindful not to engage in frequent sexual activity or intercourse, and avoid drinking beer. Prevent consuming spicy and irritating foods. It is recommended that in this situation, timely surgery for treatment is the best option to avoid potential interference with sperm. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life. Pay attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
