Patient's question:
In the past year, my testicles have been getting worse. I am currently serving in the military, and my duties include standing guard for extended periods.Doctor's answer:
Severe varicocele can interfere with future fertility. Currently, frequent standing can exacerbate the condition. It is recommended to report the actual situation to the unit leadership and request training that involves prolonged standing. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely and targeted treatment, and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
