Patient's question:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:I've had this illness for about 1, 2 years. There are no specific symptoms, it's just that occasionally there's a little pain on the left side. Should the doctor treat it?
Doctor's answer:
Varicocele, due to long-term blood stasis, can lead to poor blood circulation in the testicles, potentially causing damage to the testicular and epididymal function. In severe cases, it may result in infertility. Since you are already experiencing discomfort symptoms, it is important to seek active treatment.It is recommended to visit a hospital's surgical department and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Maintain a low-sodium diet, have easy-to-digest bowel movements, avoid spicy and irritating foods, wear loose underwear, relax, develop good hygiene habits, and keep the external genital area clean, dry, and hygienic. Avoid riding bicycles, driving, or staying stationary for long periods.
Varicocele is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication for management. For male patients, it is crucial to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment options should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking and pay attention to personal hygiene.
