Patient's question:
A few days ago, I had a cold, so I thought the fever and chills were caused by the cold. However, the fever didn't go down, and when I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said I had testicular swelling. I don't know how I got this condition. Please ask: How should testicular swelling be treated?Doctor's answer:
From your description, it is most likely that the condition is caused by inflammation, which is a sterile inflammation. It is recommended to focus on anti-inflammatory treatment and refrain from sexual activity for a period of time. It is best to wait until the testicles have truly subsided completely before resuming sexual activity. If sexual activity is resumed before the inflammation is completely eliminated, it may lead to repeated congestion and edema of the testicles, making the condition difficult to recover from. I hope my explanation can be of help to you. The condition of testicular swelling tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical attention immediately at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, it is important to restrict sexual activity, maintain a good mood, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
