Patient's question:
I had laparoscopic surgery for left varicocele two weeks ago. Today, I might ride an electric scooter for a bit longer, and then I noticed a little bit of blood coming from the suture line. It stopped after that. Hello, what should I do?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, you are a 20-year-old male who underwent laparoscopic left varicocelectomy two weeks ago. Today, you noticed a very small amount of bleeding at the wound suture line.Recommendation: Don’t be nervous. It’s best to go to the hospital to check the wound healing. Under normal circumstances, bleeding should not occur again two weeks after surgery.
Varicocelectomy is a curable condition, but the treatment period is usually long, and the risk of recurrence is high after treatment. Therefore, medication should be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, the patient should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
