Patient's question:
At 5 months, the testicles retracted into the abdomen. I visited the children's hospital, and there were no issues; it didn't hurt. But now at 3 years old, the testicles are still not palpable. Should I go to the hospital for surgery? What should I do if the testicles have retracted into the abdomen?Doctor's answer:
This situation should be operable. Generally, if the testicles do not descend into the scrotum after the age of one, surgery can be considered. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a thorough examination as soon as possible. There may be a need for medication, and surgery should be considered in conjunction with it. Drink plenty of water in daily life, especially drink some warm water on an empty stomach every morning. Always maintain a cheerful mood, a regular lifestyle, and ensure deep sleep. Testicular conditions are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is necessary to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital as soon as possible. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results.
