What causes varicocele on the left side?

Patient's question:

For five months, I've been experiencing pain and discomfort in the perineum, and pain at the base of the penis during urination. I have varicocele of 3mm in the left spermatic cord. Where is the cause of my condition, and how should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

First, if you have varicocele on the left side, this condition may lead to suprapubic discomfort or pain. At the same time, it is also possible to have prostatitis. In this case, it is recommended to visit a regular hospital's urology department for a follow-up, improve relevant tests, such as routine prostatic fluid examination and routine urine examination, to clarify whether prostatitis is present, and implement systematic treatment. Additionally, varicocele requires surgical treatment. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If treatment is not timely, it may affect the overall health condition.
