Is it normal for the right testicle to hang inside the scrotum?

Patient's question:

Hello, the right testicle hanging in the scrotum is not vertical, but slightly tilted to the right. I felt it was normal before, but after playing basketball many times, I noticed it. Is it normal?

Doctor's answer:

Common benign inflammatory conditions of testicular pain include three types: orchitis, varicocele, and testicular torsion. If the color Doppler ultrasound shows a continuous increase in blood flow, it is advisable to rest in bed and receive intravenous antibiotics. If the color Doppler ultrasound indicates increased blood flow in the testicle, it is a sign of reversal, and surgery must be performed as soon as possible to prevent the testicle from becoming suppurative. If the color Doppler ultrasound suggests varicocele, elective surgery is generally possible. For testicular patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If treatment is not administered promptly, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication treatment and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting.
