Doctor's answer:

Hello, the treatment for varicocele is not solely surgical. For younger individuals who are unmarried, if symptoms are present, a scrotal support band can be used to elevate the scrotum, and symptoms may disappear. For those without symptoms or with mild symptoms, only a scrotal belt or wearing briefs can be used. For more severe symptoms, the treatment for varicocele involves high ligation of the internal spermatic vein. It is recommended that you visit the hospital for a follow-up and, under the guidance of a doctor, choose an effective treatment plan based on your personal condition. Wishing you good health!
