Patient's question:
Bilateral varicocele, left: 2.4, right: 2.9. During Valsalva maneuver, visible widening of tubular structures. Color Doppler shows multicolored blood flow bundles filling the venous plexus, with reflux during quiet respiration. How to treat?Doctor's answer:
Most people have no symptoms, while some patients may experience a sensation of scrotal heaviness or left testicular pain. Prolonged standing or long walks can alleviate the symptoms. Severe varicocele may sometimes interfere with the testicles' ability to produce sperm. Varicocele does not significantly affect overall health, and most cases can be cured after marriage. For those with mild symptoms, no treatment may be necessary, but scrotal support belts can be used to lift and protect the scrotum. For male patients, it is important to seek professional and reputable medical treatment immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained.
