Patient's question:
I have been taking traditional Chinese medicine for almost a year, but there is no improvement. My legs have varicose veins, and my legs ache and swell when it's cloudy or rainy. I also have testicular pain, and the pain intensifies when I exert myself. My lower back aches, and I can only go a few steps before I discharge. I want a second child but can't get pregnant. What medicine should I take? Do I have to have surgery?Doctor's answer:
First, it is necessary to undergo surgery for varicocele and varicose veins in both lower limbs at the hospital to prevent interference with sperm quality. Pay attention to exercising regularly to enhance the body's resistance, and take oral medication to fully restore sexual function. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should promptly receive treatment according to their symptoms and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting.
