Patient's question:
Prostatitis can cause testicular pain. For nearly ten days, I've been feeling discomfort in my testicles. When I go to bed in the morning, I don't feel anything special, but after working (sitting by the computer for training), I start to feel a bit of swelling in my testicles, which improves when I stand up. I've noticed that sitting for a long time makes me very uncomfortable, and lately, even walking has been a bit uncomfortable. There's no problem with urination; it's the same as before. Please ask if prostatitis can cause testicular pain?Doctor's answer:
The main symptoms of prostatitis are frequent urination, urinary urgency, difficulty urinating, post-micturition dripping, increased nocturia, and also include swelling and pain in the scrotum, perineum, and testicles, as well as lower back pain. Therefore, testicular pain may also be caused by incomplete treatment of prostatitis. For the situation you mentioned, I personally believe that dedicated oral anti-inflammatory medication treatment is necessary. If the testicular pain is particularly pronounced, anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs can be used. It is important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital as soon as possible. Treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained.
