A varicocele is the collection of inflamed or swollen veins inside the scrotum, i.e., they are varicose veins inside the scrotal sac. It generally occurs due to abnormality in the blood flow in the scrotal veins, which leads to the pooling of blood in the veins and inflammation.
In this stage, the varicocele is not easily visible. Patients might feel slight swelling in the scrotal region. They also start experiencing mild symptoms such as discomfort and soreness. They can be diagnosed during a physical exam through a Valsalva maneuver.
It can also result in a reduced proportion of sperm in the patient’s semen. This is because it blocks the blood flow in the testes, which impedes reproductive function and can even lead to permanent damage to the testicles, also known as testicular atrophy.

Grade 1 varicocele usually doesn’t cause any noticeable symptoms. In fact, most patients with Grade 1 varicocele are not even aware they have a varicocele. However, its treatment may be required if:
If left untreated, the varicocele can eventually lead to permanent testicular atrophy and infertility for the patient.
A grade 1 varicocele is usually managed medically because it rarely causes any noticeable symptoms. Grade 1 varicocele symptoms are managed by applying ice packs to reduce swelling, using over-the-counter pain medications for pain management, and wearing tight-fitting underwear to prevent irregular blood flow and pooling.
However, in case the symptoms become problematic, the varicocele is removed surgically. The surgical removal of a varicocele is known as varicocelectomy. The most common and best procedures for varicocele removal are:
Diet & Lifestyle Consultation
Post-Surgery Free Follow-Up
Free Cab Facility
24*7 Patient Support
If the patient needs surgery, they can prepare for the same via:
Generally, a Grade 1 varicocele is managed medically, but in case surgery is required, the patient will be hospitalized for 2-3 hours in a recovery room. After this, patients can go home on the same day.
Most men can start working within a couple of days of the surgery, especially if they have desk jobs. There may be slight postoperative pain and swelling in the groin for 3 to 4 weeks, but that can be easily resolved through over-the-counter pain medication. Complete recovery may take at least 3-6 weeks.
The benefits of getting treatment for a Grade 1 varicocele are:
After the surgery, the patient should follow the given tips to fasten their recovery and prevent the recurrence of varicocele:
Although varicocele removal surgery is a relatively safe procedure, just like other surgeries, it can be associated with some risks and complications:
You should immediately connect with your doctor if you notice any complications like pus discharge, fever, unbearable pain and swelling, persistent nausea and vomiting, etc.
Yes, if you have any noticeable symptoms of a varicocele, such as scrotal pain, discomfort during sexual intercourse, etc., you should seek treatment immediately. In many cases, varicoceles can also interfere with sperm production and lead to permanent infertility.
No, surgery is usually not necessary for Grade 1 varicocele treatment. However, it is ultimately the most effective and long-term treatment option if the patient’s symptoms get worse.
There are no medicines that can relieve a varicocele. Instead, medicines are prescribed to manage the symptoms associated with it.
While a grade 1 varicocele won’t cause permanent damage to the testes, it can impede reproduction by reducing the sperm quality and quantity in the semen, which can be perceived as infertility.
