Patient's question:
During a thorough examination, I found that I have varicocele. Knowing that this can cause significant interference with future fertility, I am very worried. Hello, how should varicocele be managed?Doctor's answer:
This is a relatively common disease. The symptoms of varicocele generally include neurasthenia. Patients with varicocele may experience recurrent symptoms of neurasthenia, such as headaches, fatigue, and hyperesthesia. There may also be sexual dysfunction symptoms, such as low libido, premature aging, and premature ejaculation, or swelling, a heavy sensation, edema, and pain in the scrotum or testicles. Swollen or painful veins resembling worms may be palpable or visible within the scrotum. The scrotum or testicles may feel swollen or painful, and the scrotum may appear larger. When standing, the affected side of the scrotum and testicles is higher than the healthy side. There are many different treatment methods. If the body can tolerate it, surgical treatment tends to be more effective. Additionally, it is important to pay attention to diet and lifestyle habits and avoid putting too much pressure on yourself.
