What should be paid attention to after traditional varicocele surgery?

Patient's question:

Surgical damage to the testicular artery, spermatic cord artery, and cremaster muscle artery leads to insufficient blood supply to the testes, causing discomfort. What medication can stabilize the symptoms of insufficient blood supply?

Doctor's answer:

Varicocelectomy is one of the common surgical procedures. After the surgery, oral anti-inflammatory drugs should be taken to prevent infection. Rest is important, and patients should follow medical advice for postoperative care. Generally, it takes about a week for recovery. Avoid excessive exercise after surgery and maintain good hygiene of the external genitalia. Abstain from sexual activity. Avoid spicy foods and alcohol. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and consume light foods to aid postoperative recovery. For varicocele patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life, paying attention to personal hygiene.
