Patient's question:
How should varicocele and hernia be treated? In the past year, there has been a noticeable hard lump in the left groin after prolonged standing, which gradually disappears when lying down. At the same time, a gurgling sound can often be heard when gently touching the lump. How is varicocele treated?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, it is likely a left inguinal. The possibility of varicocele is unlikely. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital's general surgery department for a thorough examination. If necessary, an inguinal ultrasound can be performed for a detailed check. If it is an inguinal, the fundamental solution to this problem is surgical treatment. For caution, it is also recommended to have a check-up with the urology department to rule out the possibility of varicocele. Wishing you all the best. The daily treatment for patients with andrological diseases is mainly symptomatic treatment. Patients can take some oral medications, supplement with some vitamins, and pay attention to regular routines, avoiding alcohol.
