Patient's question:
My boyfriend recently discovered that his testicles are of unequal size. When I asked him about it, he said he doesn't feel anything, but sometimes it causes a dull ache. What are the factors that can cause testicular pain?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to carefully check for the possibility of orchitis and epididymitis, as well as for spermatic cord inflammation and seminal vesiculitis, which are highly related to excessive sexual activity and intercourse. Pay attention to increasing sexual activity and avoiding intercourse, avoiding spicy foods, and abstaining from alcohol. If it is an inflammatory condition, antibiotic treatment can be used. Most importantly, quitting smoking and alcohol, as well as increasing sexual activity, are crucial for patients with urological diseases. Timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease, while delayed treatment may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely and symptomatic treatment, and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
