I have varicocele for 1 year, and now the epididymal head is swollen, 7mm, 6mm. Is this swelling serious? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Assessment of the Condition and Recommendations Based on your description of the symptoms and the images, there is a small hydrocele on the left epididymis and mild varicocele on the left spermatic cord, which should not be a major issue. It is recommended to visit the urology department for a follow-up examination and consider surgical treatment if necessary. In addition to treating male reproductive health issues, it is advised that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate the recovery process. During daily life, it is important to focus on a balanced diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, avoid overexertion, and get adequate rest.
