Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have been operated for Varicocele on left side and now have recurrence of Varicocele (3mm) on the same side .

1)The recurrence of Varicocele is mainly due to congenital weakness of the non returning valves in veins which are not ligated during first surgery. It is not due to too much consumption of antibiotics.

2)Ligation of the dilated veins is the only treatment for treating Varicocele.

3) There is no complication of redo surgery.

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions ,I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.
