I found out I have a grade III varicocele in my right testicle after a Doppler scan was done because I had some pain there a few months back. The doctor mentioned I might need surgery. I'm feeling a bit worried about not treating it. Can there be any side effects if I leave it as is? Would not having the surgery impact anything long-term?
