How to distinguish the severity of varicocele

Patient's question:

Left varicocele vein diameter is about 2.4mm, right varicocele vein diameter is about 2.5mm

Doctor's answer:

For this condition, not all surgical treatment is required. For younger individuals who have not yet married and exhibit symptoms, using an orchidopexy belt to raise the scrotum can alleviate the symptoms. These patients often experience symptom resolution after marriage. For those with more severe symptoms, high ligation of the internal spermatic vein may be performed. As most people are aware, varicocele can cause significant harm to patients, so it is important to seek treatment promptly. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues, avoiding foods, and maintaining a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up appointments may be necessary when required.
