Can masturbation cause varicocele?

Varicose veins are caused by abnormal tortuosity and dilation of the varicose veins in the varicose veins. The prevalence rate accounts for about 10%-15% of male diseases and is one of the key causes of male infertility. In clinical medicine, this disease is common in young men. So, can masturbation cause varicose veins?

Varicose vein varicocele is a common disease of the urogenital system. Generally speaking, abortion does not immediately cause varicose vein varicocele. Varicose vein varicocele is caused by the blood flow in the varicose vein being blocked.

Primary varicose vein is mainly seen on the left side, because the left varicose vein is compressed by the intestines and stomach and cavitary blood vessels during its course, and flows back to the left renal vein at an angle, so the friction resistance is relatively large, which leads to a higher incidence of varicose vein on the left side. In addition, some diseases such as renal tumors can also cause varicose veins secondarily if renal venous thrombus or cavitary venous thrombus occurs. However, abortion is not likely to directly cause varicose veins.

7 major causes of varicose veins:

Varicose veins are so terrible that everyone undoubtedly pays special attention to its causes. If you want to stay away from the causes, you must prevent them before they happen.

1. Genetic inheritance

The incidence rate of first-degree relatives of VC patients is higher than that of ordinary people. Survey data show that 21.1%-36.2% of fathers and sons and brothers suffer from varicose veins.

2. Sitting or standing for long periods of time

Sitting or standing for a long time will affect the normal circulation of the varicose vein, thus causing symptoms. In addition, long-term high abdominal pressure caused by lifting, heavy physical work, etc. can also easily lead to varicose veins.

3. Uncontrolled sexual life

Excessive and intense sexual intercourse, frequent masturbation, and indiscriminate use of health products can cause long-term blood swelling in the male testicles, which can easily lead to blood stasis and varicose veins in the spermatorrhea.

4. Caused by kidney disease

Chronic kidney diseases that affect or compress the renal veins, such as renal venous thrombus, renal tumor, extremely large hydronephrosis or renal cyst, can cause varicose veins.

5. Absence or functional problems of the venous valve of the varicose vein

The venous heart valve has the function of preventing venous reflux. When the venous valve of the varicose vein is missing or functions poorly, blood reflux and blood stasis may occur, which may cause the varicose vein to become tortuous and dilated over time.

6. Weak foundation of the venous flexure wall and surrounding connective tissue

Weakness of the walls of the flexural vein and the surrounding connective tissue will lead to reduced elasticity of the flexural vein, which is not conducive to blood flow back.

7. Nutcracker phenomenon

Under normal circumstances, the left renal vein passes through the intersection between the abdominal aorta and the superior mesenteric aorta and enters the inferior vena cava in front of the abdominal aorta. This intersection angle is about 45°-60°, and is filled with mesenteric fat, lymph nodes, retroperitoneum and sympathetic nerve plexus, so that the left renal vein is not stressed. In patients with Nutcracker syndrome, this intersection angle is generally less than 16°, which will affect the return of the left venous flexure and even reflux.
