Patient's question:
I am a taxi driver and have been sitting in a small space for a long time, lacking in physical activity. Recently, I noticed some pain in my testicles, and they seem to be of uneven height. Looking at the symptoms, I did some research and suspect it might be varicocele. I would like to ask: What is the most effective treatment for varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Asymptomatic mild varicocele does not require treatment.Non-surgical treatment: For mild varicocele or those accompanied by neurasthenia, report scrotal swelling, cold compresses, etc.
Surgical treatment: For severe varicocele, continuous sperm count below 20 million three times in a row, or testicular atrophy; if the varicose veins disappear when lying flat, the inguinal vein can be performed.
Varicocele can easily lead to infertility. In daily life, avoid standing or sitting for long periods, frequent intense exercise, smoking, drinking beer in moderation, and avoiding spicy and irritating foods, etc.
