What should be done if a paraplegic patient has reticular red blood vessels in their testicles?

Patient's question:

I have a 13-year-old patient with complete paralysis, who has been ill for 4 years. Recently, there have been reticular red blood vessels in his testicles again. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

It may be due to poor drainage of compressed veins. It is recommended that you dress your child in loose cotton underwear and avoid tight pants or jeans as much as possible. If there is a sensation of itching, wash with warm water and let it dry in the sun, always maintaining dryness. Testicular conditions are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment promptly at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
