Is varicocele only detectable when performing actions?

Patient's question:

Today, I carefully checked for varicocele and had a color Doppler ultrasound, but it was all performed under normal breathing, and the images are of normal breathing. Is a careful check for varicocele always necessary?

Doctor's answer:

After reviewing the medical history and the ultrasound findings, it appears that there are no varicoceles in both testicles, epididymides, or bilateral spermatic cords. Everything is normal, so please rest assured.
Based on the thorough examination, no significant abnormalities were found, and there are no abnormal symptoms. You should feel at ease. It is recommended to engage in more physical activity and exercise to strengthen your body.
For patients with varicoceles, timely treatment can help reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and maintain a regular lifestyle, avoiding prolonged sitting.
