Patient's question:

Left varicocele laparoscopic high ligation surgery more than three months ago, today went to the hospital for follow-up examination, completely recovered, not fully recovered, can feel a lump by oneself, is it normal?

Doctor's answer:

According to the symptoms you described, it is best to visit a regular hospital's general surgery department. I don't know what you touched? Rest well, avoid overexertion, and prevent exposure to cold, dampness, or irritation. It is highly recommended to return to a regular hospital's general surgery department for a follow-up visit, allowing professional doctors to conduct a detailed examination, including an abdominal and genital ultrasound, to confirm the diagnosis. Varicocele can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and maintain good lifestyle habits and a proper diet during the treatment period.
