Can varicocele be cured with Chinese medicine? Chinese medicine experts tell you

Nowadays, many diseases can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine. For example, for diseases like varicocele, there are mature treatment methods in traditional Chinese medicine. However, traditional Chinese medicine experts say that many diseases require multi-faceted measures to achieve good results.

1. Generally speaking, the methods of TCM for treating varicocele are very effective. Varicose veins are generally classified as "muscle tumors" in TCM. The main causes of the disease are: excessive fatigue and trauma to the tendons and veins, leading to stagnation of the tendons and veins; or insufficient liver and kidney, resulting in malnutrition of the blood vessels; or standing for a long time, resulting in blood vessel disharmony and poor circulation of qi and blood, resulting in stagnation in the tendons and veins; or due to the accumulation of dampness and heat, all of which can cause varicocele.

2. Dampness and heat cause the disease: Since the patient's scrotal skin is burning and red, the swelling and pain will generally worsen after work. After resting, the symptoms will be slightly relieved. At the same time, there will be a feeling of bloating and pain when touched. The left spermatic cord is thick and varicose veins appear like earthworms. The tongue is red, the tongue coating is yellow and greasy, and the pulse is stringy. Therefore, the treatment is mainly to soothe the liver and disperse the stagnation, clear away heat and promote the flow of dampness.

3. Diseases caused by liver and kidney deficiency: Patients will experience scrotal enlargement and lower abdominal cramps, which are usually more severe when standing or after fatigue. At the same time, the spermatic veins can be seen to expand, bend, and stretch. When lying flat, the testicular or lower abdominal cramps will be significantly relieved, and the varicose veins will shrink or disappear. For severe cases, they generally will not disappear, and will be accompanied by low back pain, dizziness, chills, cold limbs, cold scrotum, impotence, premature ejaculation, etc. At the same time, there are pale red tongue, less coating, thin pulse, etc. The treatment of this symptom is mainly to nourish the liver and kidneys and promote qi and blood circulation.
