Scrotal bruises are veins and if they show up clearly, they may be caused by thin subcutaneous fat. This condition does not require treatment. However, if you have varicocele, you may also have visible scrotal veins, and you will need to seek treatment.
In the early stages of varicocele, there is usually no discomfort, but as the condition worsens, the patient may experience a feeling of cramping in the perineum, slight swelling and pain, and back pain. With long-term varicocele, blood will pool in the scrotum and metabolites from the testicles will accumulate in the pooled venous blood, causing nutritional disorders in the testicles, which in turn will affect the growth and development of the testicles as well as the spermatogenic function.
The treatment of varicocele is caused by general treatment, medication, surgery and so on.
- General treatment
Including lifestyle, dietary regulation, physical therapy, such as abstaining from smoking and limiting alcohol, eating a light diet, avoiding exercises that increase abdominal pressure, using cooling therapy or using scrotal support, etc. - Drug treatment
The drugs for varicose veins include heptaosaponin and flavonoids, of which heptaosaponin can anti-inflammatory, anti-exudation, and protect the collagen fiber of the vein wall, which can gradually restore the elasticity and contraction function of the vein wall, increase the venous blood return speed, and reduce the venous pressure. And flavonoids flavonoids have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, which can improve venous tone, reduce capillary permeability, improve lymphatic return rate, reduce edema, and also improve the pain symptoms caused by clinical type varicocele. - Surgical treatment
Surgical treatment of varicocele includes both surgical and interventional (cascade or retrograde) treatment. Surgical treatment includes traditional spermatic vein ligation, subinguinal route spermatic vein ligation, laparoscopic spermatic vein ligation, etc.
