Patient's question:
There is a blue vein on the testicle that becomes very thick and hard during erection. For nearly two months, the reason is unclear. I have been married for eight years and often work overseas. I have a history of sexual activity. Previously, I had never experienced anything similar. It doesn't hurt, but that vein is particularly noticeable during erection, like varicose veins on someone's leg. How is varicocele treated?Doctor's answer:
1. Varicocele-induced scrotal pain can sometimes even radiate to the inner thigh or lower abdomen. After onset, the patient's sperm count may decrease, which can affect fertility.2. It is recommended to seek examination and treatment at a regular and professional hospital. Avoid alcohol and reduce the intake of foods; rest properly and avoid prolonged standing; maintain local hygiene to prevent infection; follow medical advice for medication or consider surgical treatment.
