Hello,
Varicose veins in testicles needs to be treated with varicocele surgery or varicocele embolization in which a tube is inserted into the groin and then guided under x-ray or ultrasound to the varicose veins. You should get it examined from a urologist and discuss these two treatment options.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

... are a *****. I have them on the left leg, from my crotch to my ankle--and from what I've learned, the only way to keep them under check is to collapse them surgically.
Apparently certain exercises help, yoga especially--some herbal ointments (chestnut) to an extent, though, if it's causing you discomfort, surgery is more or less the only option.
On the bright side, they aren't that serious and might motivate you to adopt a healthier lifestyle. Just don't get depressed about it, a large number of people suffer from those--it's one of those illnesses our civilization suffers from--all that sitting, and junk food.
I'm at the age (35) when I'm just beginning to find out that my body doesn't exactly act the way I want it to act, and it's somewhat disappointing--everyone expects they'll be okay until they're 80, at least those people who are relatively healthy to begin with. But guess what, that's not the way things go, and it's really up to you and your psyche to turn every situation into a positive one.
So keep your chin up, it's no big deal, just make sure you get informed about your situation--don't be afraid to ask.
