Patient's question:
I have prostatitis and am undergoing treatment. Previously, I had a dull ache in my testicles, but today, my right testicle is hurting severely in intermittent bursts. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is possible that the condition may be caused by orchitis. It is recommended to visit the urology department of a hospital for a thorough examination. Tests such as scrotal ultrasound and blood tests can be performed to diagnose the cause and then treat accordingly. During treatment, it is advisable to rest, avoid strenuous exercise, and maintain a light diet, avoiding seafood and spicy, irritating foods. Prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication for management. For male patients, it is essential to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, it is important to control sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
