Patient's question:
What should varicocele patients pay attention to in daily life? Varicocele, after surgery for a week, I don't know what to pay attention to in daily life? Like me, can it be cured? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
After varicocele surgery, it is essential to follow the doctor's advice, complete the recovery process smoothly, pay attention to infection, and address complications. Pay attention to supporting the scrotum postoperatively. Sexual activity is strictly prohibited for one month. Avoid sitting, standing, and excessive movement. If scrotal edema or swelling recurs, it usually disappears within three months. Do not blindly attempt to resolve it. Rest is important. Avoid overexertion and try to lie down more. Avoid foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as mutton, eel, and salted fish, as well as spicy foods like chili peppers, raw onions, and baijiu. Regular follow-up visits to the hospital are recommended.
