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. What could be the reason for the swelling of a child's testicles?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is highly likely that the child collided with the testicle while playing outdoors, resulting in an injury to the testicle. This is the most common cause of testicular swelling in children. Currently, it is suspected that the child may have hit the testicle while playing outside. It is recommended that you carefully inquire about the child's situation. If it is a blunt trauma injury and there appears to be no severe damage externally, it may be temporarily advisable to wait and see for a few days. The condition of male urological diseases tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, for male patients, it is important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. It is also necessary to refrain from sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
