Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Grade 1 to 2 varicocele is mild but can sometimes affect sperm health or cause discomfort. Since E. coli is present in the urine, it is important to treat the infection with appropriate antibiotics. Avoid heavy weight lifting or straining activities, as these can worsen varicocele symptoms. After treating the UTI, get a semen analysis done to assess fertility. Surgery is usually advised only if varicocele significantly impacts fertility or causes pain.
