A member asked:

If a person have bilateral varicoceles does the epididymis swells, hardens or tender when touched? or testis veins swells after urination?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Do not know!: However, if you have bilateral varicoceles and if you are looking to father a child you better check your sperm count. The veins around the testicles keep the testicle temperature lower. Varicocele prevents this and you could have a low sperm count. Why the swell during urination should be answered by a urologist!
