Hello there I am 18 years old and have varicocele in right side of my scrotum. Please suggest me some exercises and any other method that would help to reduce the size of varicoceles and kind of prevent it from worsening. I am looking for non surgical methods that can help at home. It really do not have pain but i want to take measures so that pain does not develop later.

Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, let me assure you, that everyone with Varicocele, doesn't develop pain. It needs treatment only if symptomatic.
Exercises like weight training,will aggravate varicocel.
Interventional radiological treatment, without surgery, is available.
If you have done an ultrasound doppler scrotal scan, to assess the varicocele, you're welcome to send a copy here, in my name, for an expert opinion.
