Patient's question:
I have had chronic non-bacterial prostatitis before and have always paid attention to managing it, trying to avoid flare-ups. However, sometimes symptoms like urinary urgency and frequency still occur. It has been many years, but during a recent thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor discovered that I have varicocele. What are the complications of varicocele combined with chronic non-bacterial prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is a condition where the return of spermatic veins is obstructed or the valves fail, causing blood to pool, leading to the expansion and tortuosity of the pampiniform plexus of spermatic veins. The incidence of left varicocele is higher. If the varicocele is mild, surgery may not be necessary, and elastic stockings or scrotal supports can be worn. However, for men with severe symptoms and varicocele accompanied by sperm abnormalities who are infertile, surgery should be performed, with the surgical method being high ligation of the spermatic veins. It is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for a thorough and detailed examination, and then follow the doctor's advice to implement targeted treatment. The condition of andrological diseases is very serious, and it is recommended that patients receive timely symptomatic treatment and hope that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care training, proper diet, to avoid aggravating the condition.
