How is testicular ptosis formed?

Patient's question:

This situation has been going on for a while. I often feel like there's fluid accumulation in the testicles, and they are swollen and red. However, because it's a sensitive area, I haven't been comfortable going to the doctor. I did some research and think it might be caused by orchitis. Here's my question: How does testicular drooping occur?

Doctor's answer:

The scrotum is subject to thermal expansion and contraction. In hot weather or when wearing too warm clothing, it appears loose and curved, while in cold weather or when insufficient clothing is worn, it tightens and shrinks. If there are no other discomforts, scrotal drooping is normal. If you suddenly notice significant scrotal drooping accompanied by symptoms such as pain or swelling, it is necessary to seek timely follow-up.
Prostate diseases tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is essential to visit a professional and reputable hospital immediately for diagnosis. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, maintain good personal hygiene, and wish all patients a speedy recovery.
