The tube connecting the testicles becomes thicker and painful

Varicose veins are a disease that occurs in the male body, especially some young men are more susceptible to the disease. If we cannot take certain effective measures to treat it in time, it will cause a lot of harm. This disease is also the key cause of many male infertility. The duct connecting the male testicles becomes wide and painful, which can be considered as a symptom caused by varicose veins.

Varicose veins are a type of vascular disease, which refers to the abnormal enlargement, extension and twisting of the venous plexus in the varicose veins. It can cause pain and discomfort and idiopathic male testicular dysfunction, and is one of the common causes of male infertility. It has attracted much attention due to its related testicular pain and discomfort, infertility and testicular atrophy. It is a common male urological disease. It is common in young people, with a prevalence rate of 10% to 15% of the normal male population and 19% to 41% of male infertility.

Varicose vein varicose vein is a vascular spermatogenesis obstruction caused by the dilation of the varicose vein and the venous plexus surrounding the varicose vein. It is usually seen on the left side, accounting for about 77% to 92%, and can also occur on both sides, accounting for about 7% to 22%. It is rare to occur on the right side, accounting for about 1%. Traditional surgical treatment uses an inguinal wound, high ligation of the internal varicose vein, and removal of a part of the scrotum to dilate the vein.

The incidence of varicose veins in the general male population is 10% to 15%, 30% to 40% in primary male infertility, and 69% to 81% in secondary infertility. The first-degree relatives of patients with varicose veins have a significantly increased chance of co-occurrence: 21.1% of fathers and 36.2% of brothers may both have varicose veins.

Varicose vein varicocele can be divided into adult type and adolescent type according to age. According to the cause of the disease, it can be divided into primary type and secondary type.

1. Primary VC

Varicose vein on the left side is more common than on the right side. The reasons may be: increased intravascular pressure of the blood vessels because the left varicose vein has a long course and joins the left renal vein at an angle; blood "nutclamp" condition (NCS), the superior mesenteric aorta and pulmonary artery are compressed to the left renal vein, affecting the flow back of the left varicose vein and even causing reflux, that is, "nutclamp" condition (NCS); lack of connective tissue around the varicose vein and venous valvular defects are more common on the left side.

Related factors of primary varicose vein: blood pressure, varicose vein valve defect or poor function causing blood reflux; varicose vein wall thickness and surrounding connective tissue deficiency, or levator testis dysplasia and other human anatomical factors. Supplementary standing posture affects varicose vein reflux.

2. Secondary VC

Causes and symptoms include: blockage of the left renal vein or caval vein by tumor thrombus, renal tumor, intra-abdominal or retroperitoneal tumor, blockage of the left renal vein or caval vein by tumor thrombus, renal tumor, pelvic tumor, extremely large hydronephrosis, turbulent blood vessels that compress the flexural vein, etc.
