Patient's question:
I had an ultrasound for varicocele on April 7th at the hospital. The detailed examination results showed bilateral varicocele of grade I. The doctor said it was nothing serious and prescribed some medication for me. In March, I had a routine test, and the sperm quality was normal. What I want to ask is that my testicles are currently uncomfortable, but my sperm quality is normal. Do I need surgery?Doctor's answer:
The discomfort in the testicles is not due to removal because it is caused by varicocele. Have you had a cold recently? My advice is that, based on your current condition, you can work night shifts, but it is important to avoid prolonged standing, as this may worsen the varicocele. Therefore, I recommend that you go to the hospital for a follow-up examination to clarify the cause and receive targeted treatment, including surgical treatment. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly.
