Varicoceles often have mild or no symptoms, which is why they can go unnoticed for long periods. In some cases, individuals may experience a dull ache or discomfort in the scrotum, especially after prolonged standing or physical activity. Other potential symptoms (though not always present) can include:
- A noticeable enlargement of the veins in the scrotum (often described as feeling like a "bag of worms")
- Pain or a feeling of heaviness in the scrotum
- Infertility or issues with sperm production (in some cases)
If you suspect you have a varicocele or are experiencing any symptoms, it's a good idea to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and potential treatment options.
