What is the best way to treat testicular varicose veins?

Patients with varicocele can be cured through active treatment. Patients with mild varicocele can be treated conservatively. They can rest more every day and wear tight underwear to help venous blood return. Moderate to severe varicocele, such as changes in semen quality and few or weak sperm, generally require surgical treatment. Varicocele is a common disease in the urinary system.

Is surgery necessary for bilateral varicocele?

If you have bilateral varicocele, it is recommended to undergo surgical treatment at an early stage. Varicocele refers to the abnormal elongation, expansion and tortuosity of the internal varicocele venous plexus of the spermatic cord. It is more common in young and middle-aged men, with an incidence rate of about 10% of the normal male population. It is more common on the left side. It is generally believed that varicocele will affect sperm production and semen quality. It is one of the causes of male infertility. Clinically, it is divided into primary varicocele and secondary varicocele. Bilateral varicocele can be treated by surgery. There are many minimally invasive surgeries, such as laparoscopic surgery, so the wound is relatively small, the recovery will be faster, and there will not be much impact on the body. If the degree of varicocele is very mild, most of them have no obvious clinical symptoms, no obvious impact on people, no treatment is required, only regular check-ups are required.

Left testicular varicocele

If you go to a large hospital's urology department for a bilateral testicular, epididymal and spermatic vein ultrasound examination, the left spermatic vein diameter is relatively thick, and you feel swelling and discomfort in the left scrotum. In this case, you can go to the hospital for a high ligation of the left spermatic vein. If varicocele is not accompanied by testicular pain and changes in semen quality, or testicular atrophy, surgical treatment is generally not required, and oral medications such as Maizhiling can be used for treatment. The incidence of varicocele accounts for 10% of young men aged 15 to 30.
