Patient's question:
Hello, I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with varicocele. I want to know how to treat it effectively.Doctor's answer:
Varicocele refers to the tortuous and dilated expansion of veins in the spermatic cord due to impaired venous (reflux obstruction). It is a common disease among young and middle-aged adults, characterized by the expansion, tortuosity, and elongation of the pampiniform plexus (vein vascular) caused by venous blood stasis in the spermatic cord. Medication or dietary therapy will not be very effective, and they may interfere with fertility. It is best to opt for surgical treatment, which is preferable. In addition to seeking proper medical treatment for male reproductive health issues, patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities. Meanwhile, patients should also be mindful of choosing a top-tier hospital () for diagnosis to ensure a good therapeutic outcome.
