Patient's question:
One testicle is swollen and hanging down. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
From your description, it seems most likely that the condition is caused by inflammation, which is a sterile inflammation. It is recommended to focus on anti-inflammatory treatment and refrain from sexual activity for a period of time. It is best to wait until the testicles have truly completely subsided before resuming sexual activity. If sexual activity is resumed before the inflammation is completely eliminated, it may lead to repeated congestion and edema in the testicles, making the condition difficult to recover from. I hope my explanation can be of help to you. Testicular swelling can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to use medications that target the symptoms during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. I hope the male patient can recover as soon as possible!
