A member asked:
Nurse gave me a ultrasound to check for testicular cancer because left side veins were enlarged and said it isn't cancer. is it something serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varicocele: Varicoceles usually occur on the left testicle more than right side. It is a benign condition. Usually, we recommend repair if it is the source of pain, left testicular atrophy or infertility.
