Patient's question:
The testicles simply hang down. I went to the hospital, but the doctor didn't conduct a thorough examination, just took a quick look and said it was varicocele. He suggested I take medication. However, at the time I didn't feel anything so I didn't take it. Recently, I noticed the heaviness is getting worse, and there are no other symptoms.Doctor's answer:
Did you notice how long you've had varicocele? Can you feel it? Besides the sensation of heaviness, there are no other symptoms. For varicocele of the testicle, I recommend surgery because it's so obvious even with the naked eye, and the symptoms are now quite pronounced. Additionally, because of the varicocele, the temperature of the testicle has increased, which interferes with sperm development and quality. Varicocele tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it's important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital promptly, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Also, be mindful of restricting sexual activity and maintaining a positive mood.
