Patient's question:
The surgery has been 13 days, bilateral varicocele laparoscopic surgery. Now the right testicle is still slightly swollen and more noticeable. Does it feel like the spermatic cord is harder and thicker than before, and is it related to erection? I had an erection for about two hours the other two days.Doctor's answer:
Since it has only been 13 days after the surgery, this is expected. If varicose veins recur, they will only appear on the surface and will not remove the internal components, so there may still be noticeable thickening. If you experience this, you should also go to the hospital for a detailed examination by a doctor. If necessary, an ultrasound can be performed to clearly observe the internal tissue structure, so a thorough examination is necessary to understand the situation.
