Patient's question:
During the physical examination for recruitment, why can the doctor determine varicocele by just touching the testicles a few times? I am planning to join the army this year, is this varicocele?Doctor's answer:
After reviewing your comments and photos, it appears that your condition involves varicosities in the testicles and penis, rather than varicocele. Professional doctors can confirm the presence of varicocele through palpation and color Doppler ultrasound. I hope this clarification is helpful to you. Varicocele is a condition that tends to recur, requiring long-term medication for management. Additionally, male patients should seek immediate treatment at a professional and reputable hospital, with treatment decisions based on thorough examination results. Furthermore, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity are important.
