I have bilateral varicocele and currently feel very uncomfortable. It mainly manifests as a feeling of testicular heaviness when standing for too long. How is bilateral varicocele treated?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is the condition where veins in the spermatic cord become dilated and tortuous due to impaired venous return. It is important to seek medical attention promptly for symptomatic treatment. Avoid prolonged standing, get adequate rest, and do not overexert yourself. Restrict sexual activity and consider wearing leather pants and underwear. Wishing you a speedy recovery. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect overall health.
