Patient's question:
Approximately a year ago, the varicocele on the left side became severe, and the left testicle has shrunk. It doesn't hurt, but it's uncomfortable, and there's a feeling of heaviness or dragging sensation on the left side.Doctor's answer:
It may be due to various reasons that lead to the symptoms caused by left varicocele, requiring a detailed and thorough examination to confirm the diagnosis. It is recommended to visit the urology department of a local regular hospital for a follow-up examination, including a routine urine test, blood test, and scrotal color Doppler ultrasound. If the varicocele is severe, surgical treatment can be considered. Pay attention to rest and increase exercise in daily life, and reduce the intake of stimulating foods such as alcohol and chili. Varicocele can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment during the treatment, use the medicine properly, and the patient should not sit or ride for a long time, pay more attention to personal hygiene.
