Patient's question:
After the surgery, I was discharged on the third day. I change the dressing every two days. I don't know what to do? I buy disinfectant and pour it on the wound, then wrap it with gauze. Is that okay?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, you should change the dressing on time after the surgery and ensure sterilization. Pay attention to maintaining hygiene and cleanliness. It is recommended that you use povidone-iodine for local sterilization. If you feel any discomfort, you should seek medical attention promptly to prevent infection. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Varicocele can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and the patient should also maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
