Hello there..... Not all varicoceles require surgery. Surgery has the potential to cause testicular damage.....
However, the primary treatment of varicoceles is surgery and indications include:
Pain....infertility ...To prevent testicular atrophy..... All methods involve ligation of veins to prevent abnormal blood flow. The recurrence rate is usually less than 10%....
Consult urologist......
