Patient's question:
I had testicular pain a few days ago, and the doctor said it was varicocele. He suggested I get an ultrasound first to see what's going on. After the ultrasound, they found a cyst and prescribed medication before I went home. However, the ultrasound report didn't mention varicocele. Does it mean there's no varicocele if it wasn't found during the exam? What are the dangers of left varicocele?Doctor's answer:
1, Clinical manifestations: Swelling and fullness in the scrotum with a cool sensation, testicular pain radiating to the lower abdomen and perineum, even leading to phimosis, local dilated veins appearing like earthworms, worsening with prolonged walking or standing, and improving with lying down and rest, lower back and knee soreness, clear and cold semen, feeling of coldness in the body and limbs. Pale tongue with white coating, deep and thready pulse.2, It is recommended to seek examination and treatment at a regular and professional hospital. Consume more foods rich in vitamin E. Vitamin E has certain functions in promoting vascular recovery, so regularly eating vitamin E-rich foods can help prevent and recover from varicocele.
