Can varicocele be massaged?

Patient's question:

My wife is over seventy this year. She started having trouble with her legs a couple of years ago and it has gotten worse this year. The hospital did a thorough examination and said she has varicocele. We have no experience and don't know how to treat it. Can varicocele be treated with massage?

Doctor's answer:

Varicocele can be adjusted through massage. If there are issues with leg and foot mobility, massage for conditioning and stabilization is very common. However, for individuals with varicocele, simple massage is not always absolutely effective. It can be controlled by using a scrotal support to compress and increase blood flow, reducing its expansion. The second approach is to correct it using the Chinese herbal medicine Meizhiling tablets.
