Patient's question:
I have noticed that my son only has one testicle recently. It feels like one is missing, but sometimes it seems like both are present. When I touch it, it feels like it's there sometimes and not there other times. I'm very worried. If it's missing, will the undescended testicle of the child descend on its own?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you. Based on your situation, the undescended testicle can be addressed with a relevant examination. This can be corrected. An ultrasound can be performed to assess this, and there is no need to worry excessively. Please maintain good hygiene and undergo regular follow-up examinations. Generally, the testicle can descend on its own, so there is no need for excessive concern. Just manage it appropriately, and I hope this helps you.
