Patient's question:
I recently feel a heavy and swollen sensation in my testicles, with a slight pain. This feeling is relieved after work, which has made me not in the best state at work lately. I plan to visit the hospital for a check-up soon, suspecting I might have varicocele. What are the symptoms of varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele is a common clinical diagnosis disease. Varicocele is more common on the left side, which is related to the anatomical structure of the left spermatic vein. The main symptoms of varicocele are as follows. Mild varicocele usually has no clinical diagnostic symptoms. Generally, it can be detected through color Doppler MRI. For moderate varicocele, the main manifestation is scrotal swelling. For severe varicocele, the varicocele cluster can be felt by touching the scrotum. For severe varicocele, the varicocele cluster is usually found in the scrotum.
