Patient's question:
In this period, I have experienced severe pain below, often accompanied by a sense of swelling. Then yesterday, I went to the urology department for a check-up, and the results showed that I have bilateral varicocele. This is the first time I've had this condition, and I'm very upset. So, how should I treat bilateral varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is generally more common in men. It primarily causes a sensation of intestinal obstruction when walking, a feeling of friction, and a downward dragging sensation. Discomfort, especially noticeable after activity, often presents as significant. The pain becomes more pronounced when forcefully pressing downward on the scrotum, and in severe cases, dilated varicose veins can be visibly seen. Surgery is typically recommended for more severe conditions.
