The child is 1 year and 7 months old, and the testicles cannot be felt.

Patient's question:

The child is 1 year and 7 months old. The testicles cannot be felt, but upon careful examination, they are still in the groin.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the situation you described, it is inferred that your child may have cryptorchidism. For children under one year old, medication can be attempted. However, your child should undergo surgery. It is recommended to have the surgery as early as possible, as delaying it may affect the timely development of the testicles. Timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence, whereas delayed treatment may impact fertility. Therefore, the patient should receive timely and appropriate treatment, and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
