Patient's question:
Can you play dumbbells after varicocele surgery? Five days after the operation... How long does it take to remove the stitches from the wound?Doctor's answer:
After varicocele surgery, the primary treatment is based on rest. You can engage in appropriate bed-to-bathroom movement, but strenuous exercise is not allowed, so lifting dumbbells is not possible. Currently, it has been 5 days post-surgery. If there is no wound infection, the stitches are typically removed after 7 days.Varicocele is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication treatment. For male patients, it is essential to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, sexual activity should be restricted, and maintaining a positive mood is important.
