Varicose veins are a urogenital disease that all men may suffer from. If they are not treated in time, it can easily lead to infertility. Generally speaking, surgical treatment should be the first choice for the treatment of varicocele. So, why do I feel pain in my testicles after surgical treatment?

Causes of testicular pain due to varicocele :

1. Secondary varicocele

The most common cause of testicular pain is deep vein disease, such as deep vein valvular insufficiency or congenital absence, post-thrombotic syndrome, etc.

2. Primary varicocele

Testicular pain is mostly caused by pathological changes or anatomical factors of the superficial veins, such as congenital venous wall dysplasia, long-term standing or heavy work, etc.

3. Others
