How should I treat testicular cancer that I just got diagnosed with?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I have pain in my testicles and feel very uncomfortable. After a check-up, I was diagnosed with testicular inflammation. I would like to consult, how should I treat testicular cancer if I just got it?

Doctor's answer:

Testicular cancer is a malignant tumor that can recur with the spread or onset of the tumor, so it cannot be completely cured after surgery. Generally, the current 5-year recurrence rate is relatively high. However, the first step should be surgical removal followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, as only this approach can prolong life. Male diseases tend to be prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals in a timely manner, considering treatment based on examination results. It is also important to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
