Does varicocele require surgical treatment?

Patient's question:

After taking the medicine, the pain has stopped, but the discomfort in the testicles comes and goes, sometimes feeling like a slight downward pull that can't be described. It started in early May and is still a bit present now.

Doctor's answer:

Personal advice for varicocele is to go to the urology department of the hospital for further detailed examination and specific consideration of surgical treatment. According to what you mentioned, this local condition can be considered using tight-fitting clothing to support and stabilize the downward drooping discomfort symptoms, and to prevent excessive exercise, as well as bad behavior habits. Varicocele can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients should avoid sitting or riding for long periods and pay more attention to personal hygiene.
