After orchiopexy surgery, the testicle feels hard when touched nearby.

Patient's question:

The baby has recently felt hard after the orchiopexy surgery, although there are fewer check-ups now. But why does the testicle feel so hard? What assistance is needed: What causes a hard testicle?

Doctor's answer:

After orchiectomy, the testicle may feel slightly hard due to normal inflammatory response, and it will usually recover completely within about a year.
Advice: Hello, your recovery time after surgery is too short, and it hasn’t fully healed yet. At least three to six months are needed. After surgery, the inflammatory response can cause the testicle to feel harder, along with possible adhesions. Don’t worry. I wish your baby stays healthy. Male urological diseases can be stabilized, but the treatment duration is generally long, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, it’s crucial to cooperate fully with your doctor during treatment.
