Patient's question:
I found varicocele last month, with left 2.7 and right 2.1. The pain has been continuously worsening recently. Is there any way to relieve it? (I have to go back to school now, so surgery has to wait until the winter break.)Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is generally caused by excessive sexual activity or overexertion. Regarding lifestyle, if surgery is not convenient at the moment, local cold compresses can be considered, as they can help alleviate pain. Varicocele can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
