Is it sometimes related to colds when a 10-year-old's testicles go up?

Patient's question:

A 10-year-old boy, sometimes his testicles go up, sometimes they come down. Is there a problem? He has had a slight cold these last couple of days. Is there a connection between his testicles not coming down and his cold?

Doctor's answer:

This is not a problem at all. Being able to move up and down is normal. If it's just a cold and hasn't led to testicular swelling or other uncomfortable symptoms like pain, there's nothing to worry about! For testicular conditions, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it can affect your health. Therefore, patients should seek timely medication treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
