Patient's question:
Right testicle, had pain once for 2-3 hours in the middle of the night (pain woke me up while sleeping) last August. Yesterday, it hurt for over 20 minutes (just woke up in the morning). Today, it has been hurting for 6 hours (just woke up in the morning). The pain is severe and pulls into the lower back. The doctor said it's not testicular torsion, and the testicle is normal. The emergency room doctor said it might be a problem with the spermatic cord but didn't follow up. Another doctor said everything is normal and just to endure it. Currently not scheduling an expert consultation because it's an acute recurrence. I usually have sexual habits, with the most being once a week. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The causes of testicular pain are numerous, such as orchitis, epididymitis, varicocele, prostatitis, hydrocele, etc., all of which can cause symptoms of testicular pain. The color Doppler ultrasound you had did not reveal any structural changes, so surgery is not necessary. However, the symptoms are still quite severe, so oral medication is still needed to alleviate the pain. You may also have epididymitis, so it is recommended that while taking blood-activating drugs, you can also take cephalosporin and amoxicillin-clavulanate potassium, which are two types of antibiotics.
