Patient's question:
Yesterday, I went to the urology department for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with left varicocele. I would like to ask if surgery is necessary?Doctor's answer:
A test report is a disease that occurs again in the scrotum, known as "varicocele." It can cause discomfort and pain and interfere with the maturation of sperm. It is a relatively common condition. Different treatment methods are adopted based on the severity of the condition. If it is not severe and there are no discomforts, it can be carefully observed without urgent treatment. Only in cases where medication is ineffective and symptoms are severe and interfere with fertility does surgery become necessary, preferably through minimally invasive surgery for the best results. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay more attention to personal hygiene.
