Patient's question:
On the right testicle, there's a feeling of an extra piece of flesh when touched, but only on the right side. After noticing it, I observed the left testicle and found that it also seemed a bit like that, but not as noticeable as the right side. I'm not sure if it's testicular cancer or if it was there all along and I never noticed it before. Even when squeezing the testicle firmly, it still hurts, and there are no signs of the testicle being numb.Doctor's answer:
This situation is not likely caused by cancer. The cause is related to inflammation and infection. The good news is that timely medication and treatment can help. The initial diagnosis is orchitis. If the condition recurs, oral metronidazole can be taken for treatment, and close observation is necessary. Pay attention to your diet, avoid spicy foods, and these measures can help stabilize symptoms. Alternatively, intravenous treatment can be administered. Orchitis tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination. Additionally, it is important to control sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
