Will varicocele develop into a severe condition if left untreated?

Patient's question:

Can you check what happens if varicose veins of the spermatic cord are left untreated? Will they develop into severe varicose veins?

Doctor's answer:

Individuals with no symptoms or mild symptoms can wear elastic pants or use scrotal supports. Men with severe symptoms and varicocele accompanied by sperm abnormalities should undergo surgical treatment. Currently, surgical treatment is the most direct approach. Varicocele is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should actively seek professional and reputable medical institutions for diagnosis. Treatment should be considered based on careful examination results. It is also important to control sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
