Patient's question:
Sudden mild pain in the left testicle is the kind of pain that worsens with touch. I also feel uncomfortable in my abdomen. The pain isn't particularly severe, and I can walk normally. It's pain in a single testicle. When I go to the bathroom, if I hold the testicle out, I can see a bit of whitening inside the scrotum. After resting for over an hour while sitting, the pain completely disappeared. It has been about four or five months since then, and there have been no further episodes. Would this affect fertility?Doctor's answer:
Generally consider the possibility of prostatitis and orchitis. In your case, you can go to the hospital for a thorough examination. A color Doppler ultrasound of the urinary system and a color Doppler ultrasound of the testicles and epididymis. If there are no problems, it will never interfere with fertility. If there are issues, it will interfere with fertility. If you are concerned about this, you can have a semen analysis. Testicular conditions are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital in a timely manner, and consider treatment based on examination results. Also, pay attention to restricting sexual activity and maintaining a good mood.
