Patient's question:
My child suddenly started feeling nauseous and vomiting, and kept complaining about stomach pain. I thought it might be gastroenteritis or food poisoning, but after going to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was testicular torsion. I am very worried about whether this will affect my child's future. Could you please tell me: how should testicular damage be treated for the best outcome?Doctor's answer:
Itching in the testicular area is the most common symptom of orchitis. Orchitis does not necessarily only accompany itching symptoms and may also cause some pain. This pain may recur after sexual activity, which could be due to the high congestion of the genital and genital glands caused by sexual arousal. Some pain may be due to varicocele of the spermatic cord or pain referral from other parts, such as testicular radiating pain caused by ureteral stones. In this case, it is necessary to carefully identify the true cause in order to effectively address the symptoms. Therefore, it is recommended that you go to a formal hospital to determine the condition before receiving targeted treatment. Male genitourinary diseases are prone to recurrence and may require long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to actively seek diagnosis in professional and formal hospitals and consider treatment based on the examination results.
