Is there a small lump that keeps itching? Can you have sex life?

Patient's question:

There's a small lump that keeps itching. Then, can I have sexual activity six days after left varicocele surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Currently, under the condition of only 6 days post-surgery, sexual activity is not recommended. Generally, men are strictly prohibited from engaging in sexual activity within the first month after surgery. The specific timing for resuming sexual activity should be confirmed based on complete recovery, with appropriate restraint to avoid adverse effects. The testicles can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
