Patient's question:
I have varicocele. When standing for a long time, my testicles feel slightly swollen, but not very much. Sometimes they are not swollen either. When standing still, I feel a bit of soreness in the groin area, but when walking, I don't feel the soreness. What should I do about the slight swelling in my testicles when standing for a long time?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you mentioned, let's consider it preliminarily. It could be caused by varicocele. We recommend you go to the hospital for a follow-up examination. Improve the relevant tests. If conditions permit, we suggest surgical treatment for varicocele. The condition tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it's crucial to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital immediately. Based on the examination results, treatment should be considered. Additionally, refrain from sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
