Millions of men experience prostate problems every year. But what defines prostate enlargement and how does the prostate grow as it enlarges?...

Q: Trivial Varicocele? (chronic testicular pain )

Hey guys,

Like a lot of you on here I've got chronic testicular pain. I've had an ultra sound that has shown what was described as a "trivial" varicocele. What I want to know is could my varicocele been mis-categorised as trivial and really be the source of my pain?

I am also wondering If I have some form of chronic infection, as I get frequent buring pain on ejaculation/urinating from my uretha. Can this buring pain be part of the chronic pain? I'd also wondered if it was of fungal nature, as I have a intestinal disorder that allows yeasts to grow and spore with much greater ease.

In all honesty I can live with the pain I have, however difficult it aslong as I know it is something I have to live with, not something that could be cured.

I have been offered the usual chronic pain drugs but to be honest I know it'll affect my head, and I'd rather have the pain than the spaced out feeling these drugs will give.

Any help welcome guys.

varicocele, Testicles

I have varicocele also. It has the burning, nausiating, heavy, cronic pain. I've had it for years. I've worn jock straps often which help some but I tried the athletic supporter made by Franklin, from Wall Mart, less than $5. It's the best support I've ever had! The pouch supports ON my testicles and does'nt pull up between my scrotum and thigh. I work construction and landscaping and wear one every day. The XL youth fits me well and the pouch holds my testicles up so they don't rub on my thighs or bang around.
