What is the reason for the carbuncle on the testicle that won't go away?

Patient's question:

There's a carbuncle on the testicle that just won't go away. When it's upset by digestion or gets bumped, it starts to hurt, and even when it's not bothering me, there's still a lump there. What's going on?

Doctor's answer:

According to the description, your carbuncle is improving and worsening intermittently, and it hasn't been completely eradicated. In this case, you can first apply ichthammol ointment externally to promote inflammation. After the inflammation subsides, pus will be expelled. Then, apply erythromycin ointment externally to thoroughly eliminate the inflammation. The testicles can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Additionally, the patient should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
