VARICOCELE is a condition characterized by the enlargement of veins within the scrotum, similar to varicose veins in the legs. It is common, especially in young men, and may not always cause symptoms.
Causes and Symptoms:
• Cause: Faulty valves in the veins allow blood to pool, leading to vein enlargement.
• Symptoms: Many experience no discomfort. Others may notice a dull ache, heaviness in the testicles, or visible, swollen veins. In some cases, varicocele is linked to reduced fertility.
Diagnosis and Treatment:
• Diagnosis: Often found during a physical exam; an ultrasound may be used for confirmation.
• Treatment: If there are no symptoms, no treatment may be necessary. For pain or fertility issues, options include surgery (varicocelectomy) to correct the blood flow.
When to Seek Help: If you experience scrotal pain, notice swelling, or have fertility concerns, it
is important to get evaluated.
