Patient's question:
Sudden pain in the testicles, what could be the cause? Recently, I've noticed that during class, my left testicle experiences intermittent pain. The pain subsides after standing for a while. At other times, there are no discomforts. Since I'm in my senior year of high school, I spend a lot of time sitting, and I wonder if it's related to this. Could you please tell me what might be causing this?Doctor's answer:
Hello: There are many causes that can lead to discomfort in the testicles, such as: prostatitis, orchitis, epididymitis, varicocele, etc. The testicle is the largest reproductive organ in men, and if it becomes affected, it will inevitably impact future sexual life and fertility. The treatment depends on the cause and requires specialized examinations to determine. In this case, it is recommended to avoid overexertion, maintain a regular lifestyle, abstain from smoking and alcohol, and avoid spicy foods to prevent worsening the condition.
