Patient's question:
Two months ago, I got epididymitis.Doctor's answer:
Hello, varicocele refers to the expansion, bending, and elongation of the pampiniform plexus of veins in the spermatic cord. The main causes include anatomical factors, physiological factors such as prolonged standing, increased intra-abdominal pressure, and the inherent robust blood flow in young adults, as well as other factors such as retroperitoneal tumors, renal tumors, and hydronephrosis. For treatment, individuals with asymptomatic or mild symptoms can wear elastic pants or use a scrotal support band. Men with severe symptoms and infertility due to varicocele accompanied by abnormal sperm should undergo surgical treatment.
