I have a broken superficial vein on my scrotum on the lower part. can that be a varicocele? i have no swelling, pain or the image of the sac of worms ?

Varicocele veins are deeper under the skin. What you described is not consistent with varicocele. Wish you good health!

Varicocele is dilatation of veins inside the scrotal sac,.. The superficial vein on the skin is not part of it
