Patient's question:
Last night while taking a shower, I noticed my testicles felt a bit swollen. I woke up earlier and thought I might have a fever, and it got worse in the afternoon. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was told I have orchitis. I'm really worried. Could you please tell me: my inner thigh and testicles are always moist?Doctor's answer:
Scrotal dampness and sweating in the inner thighs may be indicative of chronic prostatitis. It is recommended that you visit a hospital promptly for a thorough examination to confirm the diagnosis and receive appropriate treatment. Drink plenty of water, frequently clean the groin area, and maintain dryness and hygiene at all times. Avoid tight underwear and wear loose cotton underwear. Consume more fresh vegetables and fruits, and avoid or limit spicy and stimulating foods. For patients with urological diseases, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive targeted treatment promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
