Patient's question:
More than three months after laparoscopic high ligation surgery for varicocele, the varicocele has subsided but is still somewhat thick. Why is there a slightly thick vein on the lateral side of the testicle?Doctor's answer:
According to the symptoms you described, it is best to see a regular hospital and never make decisions on your own. Rest well, avoid overexertion, and prevent cold and damp stimulation. You can go to a regular hospital for a general surgery follow-up and have an abdominal, urinary system, and genital ultrasound. If there are no significant positive signs, there is no need to worry too much; just observe carefully. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If it is not treated in time, it may affect your health. Therefore, patients should take timely symptomatic treatment and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
