Patient's question:
There is a ligament between the left testicle and the anus, which feels a bit swollen and slightly painful, but the testicle itself doesn't hurt. Recently, I've been sitting for long periods—does this have something to do with it? It's better when standing, but when sitting, it just presses on that ligament. What can I do about it?Doctor's answer:
Considering a recurrence of inflammation, such as anal abscess or perineal soft tissue inflammation, is often due to poor personal hygiene, spicy diets, excessive alcohol consumption, and other factors that allow bacteria to thrive on the anal papilla mucosa and perineal soft tissues, leading to pain upon recurrence of inflammation. Testicular conditions tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should actively seek diagnosis at professional and reputable hospitals, considering treatment based on thorough examination results. Proper diet and avoiding sexual activity should also be noted.
