The precautions to take after varicocelectomy surgery are as follows: 1. After the surgery, it is important to keep the surgical incision clean and dry to reduce the chances of infection. 2. In the postoperative diet, eat lightly, consuming more fresh vegetables and fruits, and moderately include protein-rich foods such as lean meat, fish, eggs, and milk. Protein supplementation is beneficial for the healing of the surgical incision. 3. Rest is crucial after surgery. Generally, it is advised to rest in bed, avoid standing for long periods, and refrain from extensive walking. Extended standing may cause discomfort and swelling of the scrotum, so more bed rest is recommended.
