Brief Answer:
It can be due to varicocele.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to varicocele of testes. A physical examination by an urologist or general surgeon will be helpful to rule out the condition. Ultrasound examination might be needed to confirm it also.

In such case embolisation or surgical varicocelectomy can correct this. This is a small procedure and done as outpatient also.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
