Can someone join a gym after varicocelectomy?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I had a type 2 varicocele three years ago. Later, I underwent through surgery and now, I have some mild pain over there but I also do yoga regularly without any stress or pain. Can I join gym as normal people do?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for your query,

I have gone through your query. Minimal pain post varicocelectomy can occur, if it is bothering you too much, you can examine to see if there is a recurrence. There are no limitations on physical activities with this surgery, especially since it has been three years. I suggest to keep your scrotum well-supported with proper undergarments which will be helpful.

Please follow up for further assistance.

Thank you.
