Patient's question:
Bilateral varicocele, with a left diameter of approximately 0.25 cm and a right diameter of approximately 0.22 cm. How should bilateral varicocele be treated?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is a common disease among young and middle-aged men. Those with asymptomatic or mild symptoms can wear elastic pants or use a scrotal support band. Men with severe symptoms and those with varicocele accompanied by abnormal sperm, who are infertile, should undergo surgical treatment. The surgical procedure involves high ligation of the internal spermatic vein. As everyone knows, varicocele can cause significant harm to men, so it's important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues—avoid foods and maintain a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
