Patient's question:
Left testicular swelling, examination said there is inflammation, currently there is aching pain near the genital area, unable to do anything, please ask what are the specific symptoms of orchitis?Doctor's answer:
Specialized hospitals for treating orchitis, when a testicular tumor causes testicular swelling, generally does not cause severe pain, and sometimes only a sense of fullness and heaviness. The swollen testicle becomes firm and loses elasticity after a period of time. In the early stage, the surface of the testicle is smooth, but in the late stage, it becomes nodular and uneven, with recurrent purulent softening and suppuration, eventually connecting to the scrotal skin, making the surface of the scrotum appear dark red, accompanied by complete twisting and expansion of blood vessels. Untimely treatment of orchitis can lead to a series of urinary tract infections such as scrotal inflammation, bladder inflammation, and urethritis. Therefore, when you notice symptoms of orchitis, it is essential to go to the hospital promptly for examination and treatment.
