Understanding Varicocele
A varicocele is an enlargement of the veins within the scrotum, similar to varicose veins in the legs. This condition can lead to discomfort, testicular atrophy, or infertility if left untreated. Varicoceles typically develop during puberty and can worsen over time. Proper diagnosis and treatment are essential to manage symptoms and prevent complications.
Symptoms of Varicocele
- Visible or Palpable Enlarged Veins: Noticeable veins within the scrotum, often described as a "bag of worms.
- Dull Ache or Discomfort: Pain or discomfort in the scrotum, which may increase with physical activity or prolonged standing.
- Swelling in the Scrotum: Enlargement or swelling of the scrotum due to dilated veins.
- Testicular Atrophy: Shrinking of the affected testicle(s).
- Infertility: Decreased sperm production or quality, leading to difficulties in conceiving.
