Patient's question:
After varicose vein surgery, I feel some swelling in my testicles. Lightly touching them causes pain. It's been half a month, and gently pressing around the surgical incision also causes some pain. Is this urgent?Doctor's answer:
You mentioned that it's post-surgery for varicocele, and the swelling of the testicles after this surgery is related to the stimulation at the time of the surgery, but it will recover completely soon. After varicocele surgery, the testicles may be swollen and painful. In addition to the complete healing of the incision, it will take some time. Rest properly, and these conditions can be completely recovered. The condition of the testicles is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it's important to immediately go to a professional and reputable hospital for diagnosis. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Also, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
