Patient's question:
I recently don't know why my lower abdomen is very uncomfortable, and I also don't get morning erections anymore. What is varicocele and how is it treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this condition is considered to be caused by varicocele. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to confirm the diagnosis. Medication can be used for treatment. Avoid wearing tight underwear and prolonged standing during daily life. Surgical treatment may be necessary if needed. Varicocele is the most common disease of the venous system. The main cause of its formation is congenital weakness of the vascular wall membrane or prolonged maintenance of the same posture with little change. Varicocele can consider high ligation of varicose veins, which is relatively effective. The principle of varicocele treatment is surgical treatment or choosing minimally invasive surgical treatment, with ligation as the main method.
