Patient's question:
How should I treat varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is a common swelling in the scrotum. This condition can affect male sexual function and sperm quality. It is generally related to factors such as working in high temperatures and inflammation/infection. Treatment methods include medication and surgery. If the degree of varicocele does not affect sperm quality, conservative treatment can be used. However, if sperm quality is already impacted, early treatment must be implemented. Rest and avoiding high-temperature work conditions should be maintained. Smoking and drinking beer should be avoided, and tight clothing should not be worn. Varicocele is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should seek medical attention at professional and reputable hospitals immediately.
