Testicular/scrotal varicocele is characterized as a group of enlarged veins in the scrotum which are often the result of problems with the valves in the scrotal veins. This condition rarely causes pain and most men do not realize they have a varicocele until it is diagnosed by a physician, typically during male infertility work-up or work-up for enlarged scrotum or testis. When varicocele causes pain, it may alternate from dull to sharp, worsen upon standing and ease when lying on your back.
