Patient's question:
Male, 21 years old, discovered in May 2010 that the left scrotum was significantly larger than the right scrotum. With the hand, a distinctly "earthworm-like" object could be felt inside the left scrotum, but the object inside the scrotum was much thicker than the "earthworm."Doctor's answer:
Varicose veins are the most common disease of the venous system. The main cause of their formation is congenital weakness of the vascular wall membrane or prolonged maintenance of the same posture with little change. Varicose veins can be treated with high ligation of the veins, which is relatively effective. The principle of treating varicose veins is surgical treatment or the choice of minimally invasive surgical treatment, with ligation being the main method. I believe everyone knows that varicocele causes significant harm to men, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues, with a preference for light meals and avoiding stimulating foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits can be scheduled when necessary.
