Patient's question:

I am a white-collar office worker, 32 years old. Throughout the day, I sit at my desk, and I am very busy, so I rarely get up to move around. Because of this, I was recently diagnosed with orchitis. Now, I am in constant pain every day and don't know what to do. Please ask: How can I treat a small cyst in the epididymis, prostatitis, and testicular pain?

Doctor's answer:

The causes of testicular pain are numerous. If the pain is not accompanied by scrotal redness and swelling, it may be due to a heavy ache from varicocele or referred pain from prostatitis. If it is accompanied by scrotal redness and swelling, conditions such as testicular torsion or orchitis/epididymitis should be ruled out. In this case, it is recommended to immediately go to the hospital for scrotal ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis. Only a prostate examination is performed, without tests for the testicles or epididymis. It is advised to undergo scrotal ultrasound to check the epididymis and testicles to determine the cause. In fact, having epididymitis is not at all. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and treated accordingly, the chances of alleviating the condition and recovering are very high.
