Patient's question:
I have been experiencing testicular pain and itching recently. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with orchitis. Why are my testicles wet?Doctor's answer:
Scrotal dampness is caused by prostatitis or epididymitis leading to purulent discharge from the epididymal duct and leakage of semen. It can result in symptoms such as itching, eczema, odor, neurodermatitis, papules, redness, swelling, and jock itch. In severe cases, it may lead to loss of sexual function. It is important to seek medical attention promptly for proper diagnosis and treatment. Male sexual health conditions can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually lengthy, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor, appropriate medication, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with balanced diet are essential during treatment. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
