Patient's question:
After varicocelectomy, I've been experiencing discomfort in the incision, feeling like there's a gurgle of gas, lower back pain, and kidney hydronephrosis. This wasn't present before, and it's been ongoing for three months. A thorough CTU examination didn't reveal any issues. Could you suggest that the hospital reopen the original incision to take a look at what's actually happening inside?Doctor's answer:
After varicocele surgery, I've been experiencing discomfort in the incision, feeling like there's a gurgle of air, lower back pain, and kidney stones. This was not present before, and it has persisted for three months. A thorough CTU examination shows no issues. If the pain and discomfort are severe, surgery may be performed to explore the specific condition. Varicocele can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to symptoms. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
