Patient's question:
Yesterday I had an ultrasound, and the result showed varicocele on the left side, mild 2.1mm. Then I noticed the appearance of worms was quite prominent, and it sometimes hurts. Is it possible that the ultrasound report was misinterpreted? I thought that if worms were seen in the scrotum, it should be quite serious?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele can be treated through surgery. It is best to go to a regular hospital for follow-up. If you occasionally experience pain, it is recommended to seek follow-up. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking, limit alcohol consumption, follow a low-sodium and low-fat diet, drink plenty of warm water, and engage in appropriate physical exercise. If you feel discomfort, it is best to go to the hospital for follow-up. For varicocele patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If it is not treated promptly, it can affect your health. Therefore, patients should seek timely medication treatment and pay more attention to self-care in daily life to avoid spicy foods.
