Patient's question:
Got left varicocele in 5th grade, now 14, feel no symptoms, testicles also never hurt. This was discovered during my 5th grade health check. Can it be cured? Does it require surgery?Doctor's answer:
Generally, the diameter of varicocele is less than 0.2 cm, and a condition of 0.3 cm indicates a relatively severe varicocele. This condition can easily lead to low male sperm survival rates, poor sperm quality, and infertility. If you have this condition, it is recommended to seek examination and treatment as soon as possible. The varicocele (high ligation surgery) should be performed. In daily life, wear loose underwear and ensure adequate rest. Wishing you good health. Varicocele is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term oral medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, avoid smoking and alcohol consumption, and maintain good personal hygiene. Finally, wishing all patients a speedy recovery.
