Patient's question:
Left testicle pain, accompanied by epididymal pain, lasting for several days. Taking anti-inflammatory medication hasn't been very effective. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
This could be epididymitis or varicocele. Advice: If it's epididymitis, there may be redness, swelling, and pain. With varicocele, you can feel the dilated veins. It's recommended to undergo a color Doppler ultrasound for a definitive diagnosis. The testicle can be stable, but the treatment process is usually slow, and there's a high risk of recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it's crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, take medication appropriately, and also adopt a healthy lifestyle and proper diet during the treatment period.
