What Causes Varicocele?

Hi Im active at sports, i play football(soccer), basketball, taekwondo and i exercise everyday and i just had my check up earlier and found out that i have a grade III varicocele on my left testicle. The doctor suggested surgery but he said just for a month, take 3 times daflon a day for the first 2 weeks and then just 2 daflon a day for the remaining 2 weeks. I want to know if i can still do my exercises? like push ups,sit ups, pull ups and handstand. the doctor i should not exercise for a month to see a better result but i just read in your page that exercising may help. what can you advice?


I am 19 years old .
I'm not diabetic.
I don't have hypertension.
I get morning eriction but sometimes i don't.
I have a stressful life because of acne and now varicocele is helping.

i would really appreciate your answers and advice

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Your elucidate history tells it all.
That you are a sportsman, but now have found to have grade III varicocele only on left side and your Doctor has advised you to have Daflon the way told you to take.

First of all, the cause of only left sided varicocele is that the vein which drains from the left side to has no valves or becomes incompetent as it drains directly in the left renal vein.

Since this is grade III varicocele, you need urgent Surgery as waiting more can cause your sperm count to go down.
Please get semen analysis.

I hope this answers your query.
