Patient's question:
For a while now, my testicles have been slightly swollen and aching. Recently, they've started to hurt more, especially when touched, and it feels particularly severe. It seems like the other side is also slightly swollen. I'm very worried. Please ask: How can testicular damage be effectively treated?Doctor's answer:
If there is testicular contusion, a thorough ultrasound examination is necessary to assess how the internal tissues of the testicle have been damaged. If there is no significant inflammation, it is usually due to external force factors causing local circulatory disorders, which is essentially blood clots. At the same time, the testicle also has excretory functions, so when testicular edema occurs, it may be accompanied by testicular effusion. Therefore, in addition to the body's natural healing process, treatment may be needed to aid in the resolution. Generally, it takes about 20 days for the condition to fully resolve, but this needs to be analyzed based on specific circumstances. For patients with urological conditions, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility.
