Can varicocele heal itself?
Varicocele generally cannot be cured, and most patients with varicocele do not have any symptoms and only discover their condition during physical examinations. Such patients can temporarily be under observation, but they should regularly have their varicocele rechecked and also have their semen quality tested. If there are abnormalities in semen quality, timely surgical treatment is necessary. Clinically, a small number of varicocele patients exhibit significant symptoms, typically presenting as discomfort and pain on the affected side of the scrotum, especially after long periods of walking or standing, with pain becoming more pronounced. In such cases, prompt surgical intervention is generally necessary, and surgery can also improve the quality of the patient's semen.
