Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling discomfort in my testicles. I noticed that the cord connecting the epididymal tube of the testicle is a bit painful. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
There are many causes of testicular pain, including orchitis, epididymitis, varicocele, hydrocele, chronic prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, herniated disc, and more, all of which can cause testicular pain. If you don't engage in heavy physical labor and experience fatigue and testicular swelling or pain, it is recommended to visit a urologist for a check-up to rule out prostatitis. The epididymis can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is advised to adopt healthy lifestyle habits and maintain a balanced diet during the treatment period.
