Pain In Right Vein Of The Testis And I Have A Varicocele At Right Testis
hello doc.. i m 20yrs old .i have pain in my right vein of the testis almost 1 year and 1 month already... i have go to a General Surgeon , he asked me to have an ultrasound , the result was only the left testicle has a minor varicocele , the right dont have varicocele, but he took a physical examination of both testis, he told me that i have a varicocele at right testis... He told me that i dont really need surgery unless i cant bear the pain and when I will marry a girl after 5years or more :) ... The pain is always at 4 out of 10.... (10 = most pain).. when i woke up every morning the pain is 2 out of 10, or sometimes it disappears.. but after i walk, or do anything, it starts to have pain... and, when it is evening, the pain is always about 4 out of 10 but after i masturbate the pain is lessen.....

Hi Justin,
Welcome to HCM.
Probably ultrasound missed the varicocele in your right testis. The pain you describe is typical of varicocele and the only treatment available is surgery, which, as your Doctor rightly mentioned, is best done after marriage. Meanwhile avoid lifting heavy weights, do not indulge in rough outdoor games, badminton, etc. Do not go to Gym., avoid exerting yourself too much, drink plenty of water so that you do not have to strain to pass stools. In short try to avoid all conditions which will increase the pressure inside your abdomen.

my doctor told me that i can play basketball but i should wear supporter brief, i can also lift some weights but not so heavy....
Hi Justin,
If you cannot avoid playing basketball, you may do as the doctor suggested, wearing supporters, but they may not be of much help. What you have to do in your routine daily life you do, but as far as possible avoid over straining.
