Varicose veins: Assuming that what you are feeling are veins, varicose veins in the scrotum are very common. Sometimes they increase blood flow to the testes and cause a decrease in sperm count Usually they do not require surgery unless they cause pain or decrease the sperm count to a level that impairs fertility.

No worries: It is common to see prominent veins, especially in warm conditions or weather. If, however, your scrotal pain us recurring, worsening or associated with scrotal swelling, then discuss with your primary medical provider who should be able to confirm a diagnosis & form a treatment plan.
