Patient's question:
This situation has been going on for a while. I always feel like there's fluid accumulation in the testicles, and they are red and swollen. However, because it's that particular area, it's a bit embarrassing to see a doctor. I did some research and think it might be caused by epididymitis. Could you please ask: How much does the preoperative check-up for epididymitis cost?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis is a common cause of testicular pain. There are many reasons that can lead to orchitis, such as patients with mumps, which can cause secondary orchitis, resulting in testicular pain and swelling. Gonorrhea is currently the most prevalent sexually transmitted disease. In severe cases, it can lead to orchitis, presenting with testicular pain and swelling. Chronic prostatitis can also cause testicular pain, characterized by unilateral pain, mostly dull or pulling pain, which is persistent. Microscopic examination of prostatic fluid reveals a large number of white blood cells. The patients are mostly young and middle-aged adults, with the elderly being less common. Epididymitis is curable, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment and use the medication appropriately!
