Patient's question:
My friend has been very troubled recently because he feels some pain in his lower body, and the pain is getting stronger. When he touches it with his hand, the pain intensifies. So, he went to the hospital for a thorough examination and found out that his testicles had been damaged. How serious is this testicular inflammation? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Acute pain is commonly seen in orchitis and injuries. When testicular injury occurs, there is a history of trauma and local swelling or blood clots. In chronic pain, it may persist for a long time in mild cases. The pain is relatively mild, generalized, and has radiating characteristics, making it difficult to determine the exact location of the inflammation. The pain in the testicle does not necessarily correlate with the severity of the injury. Some people have a high degree of nerve sensitivity, and even minor injuries can cause severe pain; while others are more slow to perceive, feeling the pain as less intense. It is recommended to visit the urology department for relevant examinations to confirm the diagnosis and provide symptomatic treatment. Male reproductive diseases can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and there is a high risk of recurrence after treatment. It is important to actively cooperate with the doctor during treatment and use medication appropriately.
