I had varicocele surgery 10 years ago but still get occasional pain in my testicles - is this normal or could the veins have come back
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's possible for occasional testicle pain to persist even after a varicocele surgery. While the surgery aims to fix the dilated veins, it's not always a complete cure, and some pain can be related to residual or recurrent varicocele, nerve irritation, or other factors. It's also possible that your pain has a different origin than the varicocele itself.

I'm dealing with a grade 2 varicocele and I'm really into my gym workouts. Is it okay for me to continue going to the gym? Also, are there any specific things I need to watch out for or avoid while exercising? On top of that, are there any medications or treatments I should consider to help reverse or manage this?
With Varicocele Grade 2, you can still go to the gym, but take precautions to avoid exacerbating the condition: avoid heavy lifting, bending, or straining, wear supportive underwear or a jockstrap, and take regular breaks to rest and elevate your scrotum; however, consult your doctor or a urologist before starting or continuing exercise, as they may recommend specific exercises or restrictions based on your individual condition; regarding medications, Varicocele often requires surgical treatment, but pain relief medications like ibuprofen or acetaminophen may be prescribed to manage discomfort, and hormone-regulating medications like clomiphene may be considered in some cases, but only under medical supervision.
