Patient's question:
The day before yesterday, after my high fever subsided, my right testicle became slightly swollen. I didn't pay much attention. The third day, it became particularly swollen and hard, and the scrotum also became dry and hard. I took Amoxicillin. Today, the scrotum has already started to peel, but the testicle remains swollen and hard. However, there is no pain, itching, or sensation. What could be the cause? What should I do? What medication should I take?Doctor's answer:
Consider the possibility of epididymitis? Based on the situation you described, it should be decided when to wear close-fitting clothing to prevent impact. It is recommended to go to the urology department of the hospital for a thorough examination to understand the specific condition and combine traditional Chinese medicine externally for conditioning. Let's wait and see. The condition of the testicles tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is necessary to go to a professional and regular hospital for diagnosis. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, pay attention to quitting smoking and drinking, and maintain personal hygiene.
