Patient's question:
I'm already 30 this year, and I've been divorced from my wife for 4 or 5 years. But we've never had any children. Later, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and found out that I have varicocele, which is why it happened early. I've always been blaming my wife for this, so now I want to ask, what medicine can treat varicocele?Doctor's answer:
The Western medical treatment for varicocele primarily involves surgical intervention. There is no other option besides this. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), blood-activating and blood-stasis-dispelling methods can be considered. Whether taking Chinese herbal medicine alone can lead to self-healing remains uncertain.1. The best approach is surgical treatment. Western medicine has no medications that can promote self-healing.
2. If you really don’t want surgery, you can consult a TCM practitioner and take Chinese herbal medicine for a period to see if it can lead to self-healing. If it doesn’t work, surgery will still be necessary.
3. Avoid prolonged sitting or inactivity. Do not ride bicycles.
