What should be paid attention to after varicocelectomy?

Patient's question:

Microscopic inguinal varicocelectomy, ultrasound examination after 1 month and 13 days showed a left varicocele of 2.7 cm. What is the reason for the blood flow? What should be paid attention to?

Doctor's answer:

You are about one and a half months post-left varicocele microsurgery. A detailed ultrasound examination shows blood flow, which could be due to the veins not healing properly after the miscarriage, or it could be a recurrence. It is recommended that you carefully observe for a while to see how the veins heal. If they heal properly, everything will be normal. Otherwise, if it recurs, there may be complications. Varicocele can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with your doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and also, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
