Patient's question:
What medicine can be taken to treat varicocele?Doctor's answer:
According to your description of the condition, it is recommended that you consider seeking proper treatment at a hospital's traditional Chinese medicine department for a period of time. The representative medicine is Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction, which has a certain effect. Varicocele occurs more than 90% on the left side because the spermatic vein almost flows into the iliac vein at a near-right angle, causing venous reflux obstruction. The current approach still emphasizes surgical treatment. The surgery is not major and the effect is indeed significant. Varicocele is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to seek diagnosis at a professional and reputable hospital, and treatment should be considered based on detailed examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
