Does a child need surgery if one of their testicles has not descended?

Patient's question:

My child is 4 and a half years old. The child's testicles haven't descended. Can it be treated, doctor?

Doctor's answer:

The child is four and a half years old, and there is a phenomenon where one of the testicles has not descended. It is considered to be a case of cryptorchidism. In some children, it naturally descends as they grow older. If it cannot descend on its own, surgical treatment can be considered. Daily nutrition should be comprehensive, and ensure sufficient deep sleep. Pay attention to care, and continue to monitor closely. Timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it may affect the overall health condition. Therefore, the patient should take oral medication promptly and maintain a regular sex life in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
