Is varicocele bad?

Varicocele has always been a topic of controversy among the medical community, with some believing it to be harmless whereas others consider it a serious health concern. But let’s get one thing straight; if you have varicocele, your genitalia are not going to fall off anytime soon. So before you go into full panic mode, read on, and we’ll breakdown this issue in simpler terms.

What is Varicocele?

In case you don’t know yet (don’t worry; I won’t judge), varicoceles are caused by swollen veins that develop inside the scrotum leading to difficult blood flow through the affected area. This condition mostly affects adolescent boys and adult men aged 15-35 years old – but nobody is safe from varicoceles!

It’s essential to know that while most times, there might not be symptoms associated with varicose veins for some individuals who do experience them report feeling pain or discomfort in their genitals/ testicles during sex.

Types of Varicoceles

Oh yes!, like many other diseases out there, several types come under this domain too!
– Palpable varicosities: can be felt physically and diagnosed easily with self-examination.
– Non-palpable subclinical cases: cannot readily be felt but may appear after diagnostic panography techniques.

Trust me, inflammation of reactive oxygen species causes DNA damage leading to vein walls’ degeneration contributing majorly towards both these types.

When is Varicocele Really Bad?

I don’t want y’all freaking out now just because you have noticed how undefined your left nut looks next time when taking a shower. Firstly calm down! Yes as mentioned earlier – Testicle ejection isn’t happening anytime soon. Let us break down present scenarios where checking up becomes imperative:

Problems Associated With Fertility

Studies show that approximately 15% of the male population is diagnosed with infertility; such cases’ leading cause is undetected Varicocele( you don’t see it but something’s up!). The possibility that swollen veins in the scrotum lead to abnormal sperm development, reduced sperm count wasn’t fully understood until recently. This problem can be easily solved by ‘Microsurgical varicocelectomy – a minimally invasive procedure where testicular blood vessels are re-routed to correct blood flow issues.

Testicle Degeneration

Hey! Look out for your balls too ✔️. Undiagnosed and untreated Varicocele leads to gradual atrophy of the affected Testicle ( not everything benefits from staying stagnated like this topic). As new research suggests, It starts with one side being worse than the other and within time both start decreasing in size alternatively due to thermal fluid fluctuation. Can anything be done about it ?

Painful Symptoms

Well, well!! These Veins swell mostly due to gravity imbalance or worsening of their quality over time leading ultimately towards pressure exertion requiring immediate action alongside proper medication.

  • Don’t get hasty here!

When you do experience symptoms like swelling in the scrotum along with pain.
Do not treat yourself!, There lies an absolutely unambiguous medical reason behind this discomfort that detailed diagnosis only can help decipher.

So What Should You Do About Your Varicocele?

The decision must make based upon thorough investigation and advice through informed consultation because when we talk about treating abnormality down there,
We gotta ensure we proceed correctly!!

But whatever happens , DO NOT freak out okay?

Medical Advice & Monitoring Over Time

A regular visit even if no problems seem apparent upon self-examination goes a long way ensuring taking planned preventive measures at the ideal time. Followup visits every couple of months might be appropriate to monitor if any complications arise.

Varicocele Repair Surgery

If issues are encountered and symptoms arise that cause enough pain, surgery becomes a last resort though we firmly suggest Microsurgical varicocelectomy for our friends looking up videos online about this topic.

In Conclusion

Okay, so maybe varicoceles aren’t-so-bad with proper these corrective measures in place – Medical advice or Surgery option . Diagnostic procedures lead halfway; early diagnosis can no doubt pave the way towards taking necessary action towards preventing potential fertility problems, etc., Don’t ignore even small variations while self-examination and consult your physician whenever necessary.
