How is the varicocele surgery performed?

Patient's question:

Please check carefully and it is said to be mild varicocele. I would like to consult about how long it takes to recover after varicocele surgery and what to do?

Doctor's answer:

Varicocele is a disease that is prone to occur in young and middle-aged men. When varicocele occurs, due to blood stasis in the spermatic veins, it can lead to an increase in temperature in the scrotum, and the testicular temperature can drop by 1℃ to 2℃. If the temperature remains elevated for a long time, it can interfere with the production of sperm in the testes, resulting in azoospermia and oligozoospermia. The epididymis also helps in the maturation of sperm. It is more common in young and middle-aged people. The incidence of left varicocele is higher. Those with no symptoms or mild symptoms can wear elastic pants or use a scrotal support. For more severe symptoms, surgical treatment for varicocele is recommended.
