How is varicocele of the testis treated?

Patient's question:

What to do about varicocele and testicles? If you have varicocele, your penis hurts every day, and the left side is much larger than the right. The hospital told me to stay in the hospital and have surgery, so I have to stay in the hospital for surgery? Can it be treated conservatively? How long does it take? How much will it cost approximately?

Doctor's answer:

In this case, generally speaking, the conservative drug treatment remains the foundation. Medications that enhance venous inflow can be used. If the drug treatment is not effective, surgical intervention can be considered. Nowadays, minimally invasive surgery is usually performed. When your conservative drug treatment is not effective, surgical intervention is often the only option. The hospital stay is approximately one week, and the cost is around 10,000 yuan.
