Patient's question:
I bought a vacuum erection device online. Can a vacuum erection device cause varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Varicose veins are the most common disease of the venous system. The main cause is due to congenitally weak vessel wall membranes or prolonged maintenance of the same posture with little change, leading to blood accumulation in the lower limbs. Over time, this can damage venous valves and result in high venous pressure, which is a symptom of weakened blood vessels on the skin surface. To date, there is no medication that can completely cure lower limb varicose veins. Surgical methods are generally adopted. It is recommended that you seek early examination in a regular hospital's peripheral vascular department to clarify the condition. Under the guidance of professional doctors, standardized and systematic treatment should be implemented.
