Patient's question:
Doctor, hello! I am 26 years old. My testicles are low on the right and high on the left. I feel that the position of my left testicle is a bit abnormal. According to common sense, testicles should hang down, but this testicle is mostly horizontal most of the time. After I manually put it down, after walking for a while or doing a few squatting movements, it returns to a horizontal position. Now there is a slight pain in the upper part of the testicle. This phenomenon has existed for two years. However, the duration of the slight pain was not long at that time, and it stopped hurting after about 10 days. Now it hurts a bit again. Please help me solve this problem. Is this issue serious? Will it affect fertility and sexual function?Doctor's answer:
Hello: The treatment of testicular pain should be based on symptomatic treatment after identifying its cause. If the cause or factor cannot be determined for the time being, symptomatic treatment such as sedation and pain relief can be administered. When necessary, Prilocaine block of the spermatic cord can be used, which can block the vicious cycle between the pain source of neuralgia and the central pain center in the brain.
