Hi.
Thanks for your query and understanding of the problem related to varicocele which is symptomatic.

Since this is a collection of enlarged and tortuous veins, there is no way they can be reduced by any other means than the varicocelectomy.

This is possible to postpone if the conservative management in the form of scrotal support helps to get a relief of pain .
Otherwise this is not a very major surgery, you can get operated as a day-care surgery , check the dressing after 2 days and go for a job.
I find this answer helpful
