Left testicular pain with a small testicle - is it varicocele?

Patient's question:

I used to have a long history of daydreaming. Last year to this year, I have been looking at pornography. In recent months, I've had some pain on the left side of my testicles, and they are also quite small, appearing curved under my underwear. Online, it's said that it could be varicocele and testicular ptosis.

Doctor's answer:

Varicocele is a condition that can cause recurrent localized pain and a heavy sensation. In your case, the scrotum may feel warm and expand or contract with temperature changes. Currently, with the hot weather, the scrotum is relaxed and curved. This is not considered a disease, but your sexual habits may need to be adjusted. Varicocele can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with your doctor during treatment, use medication appropriately, and maintain a healthy lifestyle and diet during the treatment period.
