Patient's question:
I had experienced testicular pain before, but then it was fine for a year. Now, my testicles have started to hurt again. It's a bit hard, but everything returns to normal after twenty minutes. Nothing is wrong. It's just that the scrotum feels a bit tired. Not painful, not swollen, but slightly erect when watching action movies. After that, the testicles started to hurt. Sometimes they even hurt without watching anything. Recently, I haven't had sex after watching movies. Why do my testicles sometimes hurt and sometimes not?Doctor's answer:
The reason for this recurring condition is related to orchitis caused by inflammation and infection. This situation is also associated with prolonged sitting and consuming spicy foods. During treatment, it is important to avoid long periods of sitting and to refrain from eating spicy foods. If symptoms improve significantly, oral metronidazole can be administered for observation. It is best to seek timely treatment. For patients with orchitis, prompt treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If treatment is delayed, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
