Varicocele and hemorrhoids

A higher prevalence of varicocele (=varicose veins in the scrotum) has been found in “chronic prostatitis syndrome” (sorry the category is from the study, but I guess NIH-III can be assumed) patients. About 15% were affected compared to 5% of the asymptomatic controls.(1-2)

  2. Thanx for the comment, but never try to self-medicate or self-treat. Varicocele should always be treated by a professional urologist.
