Patient's question:
A few days ago, my right testicle swelled and was painful. In the past two days, the pain has subsided, and the swelling has also noticeably reduced. However, there is a hard lump inside. Is testicular related to masturbation?Doctor's answer:
Testicular pain is generally considered to be caused by radiating pain from prostatitis, pain from orchitis and epididymitis, pain from varicocele, aching pain from hydrocele, pain from epididymal cysts, or possibly urinary stones. It is recommended to undergo color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate and spermatic cord, as well as color Doppler ultrasound of the testicles and epididymis. The condition of the testicles tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should promptly seek diagnosis at professional and reputable hospitals, and treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Furthermore, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained.
