Patient's question:
Doctor, I have recently noticed that there is a relatively prominent, thick vein on my penis, and sometimes I feel movable nodules on my penis. Now, during sexual activity, I experience pain again. I would like to consult on how varicocele is carefully examined?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is generally detected through a thorough MRI examination. The varicose veins are located in the spermatic cord, in addition to the varicose veins within the scrotum. The patient may also experience a sensation of heaviness, and in severe cases, pain may occur, along with potential scrotal dampness. Additionally, during the examination, a tortuous varicocele on the curved side can be palpated. Once diagnosed, surgical treatment should be performed as early as possible.Furthermore, for patients with urological conditions, their dietary habits and care during treatment are also very important. Patients must pay close attention to their diet and consume more light foods to avoid unnecessary harm. It is hoped that the above information will be helpful to you. Thank you.
