Patient's question:
I have varicocele, which should be mild to moderate, and I want to use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment. Can traditional Chinese medicine cure varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele refers to the dilation, tortuosity, and elongation of the pampiniform plexus (vein vascular) caused by the congestion of spermatic vein blood flow. Varicocele can be accompanied by testicular atrophy and impaired sperm production, leading to male infertility. It is recommended to seek treatment at a formal specialized hospital, take medication under the guidance of a doctor, avoid spicy and irritating foods, eat more vegetables and fruits, get adequate rest, and maintain a positive mindset. Avoid cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
