Patient's question:
Varicocele, what should I do? It hurts now, and sometimes it hurts when I take a nap in the afternoon. After the color Doppler ultrasound, they said to apply cold compresses and take some blood vessel medication. If it doesn't improve, surgery will be needed. Is the surgical risk high?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is a vascular inflammation, referring to the abnormal expansion, elongation, and tortuosity of the pampiniform plexus of veins within the spermatic cord, which can lead to pain and discomfort as well as progressive testicular dysfunction. This surgery is very common with minimal risks. Currently, laparoscopic high ligation of the spermatic vein can be performed, and some dilated veins within the scrotum can be removed.
