Patient's question:
I have been suffering from varicocele and plan to have surgery. But now I have a cold. Can I still have the surgery?Doctor's answer:
Generally, fever is a contraindication for surgery, and the procedure can only be performed after the body temperature returns to normal. It is recommended to first treat the cold and wait for further control of the body temperature before surgery. Varicocele can be relieved, but the treatment process is usually slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and the patient should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene.
