What should I do if the vas deferens is thickened and the epididymis has lumps?

Patient's question:

A mass in the epididymis, thickening of the vas deferens, mild discomfort, ultrasound showing fluid accumulation, and varicocele of the vas deferens. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

If the symptoms are severe and the duration is long, laparoscopic varicocelectomy can be considered. It is recommended to avoid prolonged standing and enhance abdominal pressure. If there is no stability for a long time, high ligation surgery for varicocele can be considered. The epididymis can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to develop good lifestyle habits and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period.
