Patient's question:
I have prostatitis. Previously, sometimes after eating too much spicy food, I would experience lower abdominal pain, then pain in both pelvic bones, and finally pain in the testicles. Then I noticed that the testicles seemed to have shifted, but after an hour or two, it was all gone, with no sensation at all. Is this symptom of the testicles serious?Doctor's answer:
This should be caused by prostatitis accumulating in the testicles, and it is absolutely not testicular necrosis. Abstain from sexual activity, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, quit smoking and alcohol, and prevent prolonged sitting and overtime work. Take levofloxacin tablets and tamsulosin, the three medications for treating prostatitis. The condition of prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication treatment. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals in a timely manner, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, pay attention to restricting sexual activity.
