Patient's question:
1 month ago, I had an MRI for varicocele grade 1. These past few days, I've noticed it feels a bit thicker myself, and it's also visible. Before, I didn't realize it because I didn't pay attention or it wasn't obvious enough to notice. What treatment do I need?Doctor's answer:
It's important to avoid sitting for too long. In most cases like this, treatment is not necessary. Pay attention to staying active and exercising more. Avoid overexertion and try not to sit for too long, as this can lead to poor blood circulation. Varicocele tends to recur, requiring long-term oral medication. For male patients, it's crucial to seek professional and reputable medical advice and consider treatment based on examination results. Also, maintain a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
