Patient's question:
Left epididymis is a bit painful. I have had varicocele and undergone 2 surgeries. The first one was in 2013, and the second one was in November 2016. I want to ask if it might recur again. I don't think it would be this fast, right?Doctor's answer:
Generally, the diameter of varicocele is less than 0.2 cm. A condition of 0.3 cm indicates a more severe varicocele. This condition can easily lead to low sperm survival rates, poor sperm quality, and infertility in men. If you have this condition, it is recommended to seek examination and treatment as soon as possible. Surgical ligation of the high spermatic vein should be performed. In daily life, wear loose underwear and pay attention to rest. Wishing you good health.
