Q&A: is there really a need to go under operation if one has varicocele?

is there really a need to go under operation if one has varicocele?

Although there is no way to prevent a varicocele, it usually needs no special treatment. A varicocele is usually harmless and more than likely won't affect a guy's ability to father a child. Some experts believe, though, that in some cases a varicocele might damage the testicle or decrease sperm production. In those cases, a doctor will probably recommend surgery.

How long ago has it been?

A friend of mine had one and he was fine about a week later!
