Patient's question:
For a while now, my testicles have been slightly swollen and aching. Recently, they've started to hurt, especially when touched, and it's quite severe. It seems there's also some swelling on the other side. I'm very concerned. Could you please tell me what tests are needed for testicular pain?Doctor's answer:
Your description of testicular pain has reappeared, which is more likely caused by epididymitis or orchitis. It is recommended to visit the urology and andrology department at a hospital. Generally, a thorough examination can confirm the diagnosis, and targeted treatment can include taking ofloxacin. Recently, sexual activity is strictly prohibited, and smoking and drinking should be avoided. Male urological diseases tend to recur, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, male patients should immediately seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, proper diet and avoiding sexual activity are important. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
